Re: Leyland Titan Spares

The rubber for the destination glass is a standard product and obtainable from Woollies Trim, its the same laced rubber as now specified for the RM destination glasses, not sure of the part number but somebody will know. The interior and exterior lamps are pretty bog standard items AFAIR and you are not limited to Titans as a source of spares, Olympians and Metrobuses will probably yield some similar parts.

Titans, Olympians and Metrobuses are still regularly scrapped in Barnsley, might be worth a visit or a phone call to PVS and ask if they can notify you of any arrivals.

My bus number (if any): RTL 960 RMC 1458 RM 1585 and several RTs

Re: Leyland Titan Spares

Leyland Nationals should be your first port of call for bits, the Titan was effectively a double deck national and was built alongside it at Workington.
