Digbeth: Where once Leopards used to Tread

Excepting Victoria Coach Station in London of course,  situated right at the heart of England the city of Birmingham and it's former Midland Red Digbeth Coach Station is the obvious place for National Express coaches to meet rand passengers to head off in different directions. What could once be called a  Royal Blue coach, Western National Leyland Leopard Plaxton 2427 was leaving on the long trip to Perranporth in Cornwall many hours away.

  1. And tucked up the corner is the ubiquitous Yardley's dupe, waiting to head off to one end or other of the country.
    I sometimes wondered if Yardley's actually had a depot of their own as so much of their fleet could be found at Digbeth!
