To think way back in 1962 Midland Red despite having a large rural empire to serve actually operated slightly more double-deckers than saloons if one discounts coaches. By the end of the NBC era thanks to it's buy Leyland National policy and the loss of it's most lucrative Birmingham and Black Country area to the PTE double-deckers were few and far between. The one exception was the more urban Leicester but because of their age the remaining Daimler Fleetlines had dwindled away too. Not surprisingly the Privatised eastern area called Midland Fox reintroduced them and typical was this East-Lancs bodied Scania.
