F439 AKB a Northern Counties bodied Leyland Olympian belonging to one of the many Independents that mushroomed following Deregulation leads a whole convoy of hard working double-deckers up from the old Pier Head terminus through the sunlit streets of Loverpool and the buses also glimpsed are two Atlanteans, a Titan still in London red and a former London DMS, a type also favoured by Fareday. At various times the double-decker has faced extinction in various parts of the country including large cities like Liverpool. This hasn't quite happened but with so few running in the city these days the seemingly virtual monopoly in the Nineties is something to feel nostalgic about.
