LOTHIAN LEYLAND ECW OLYMPIANS
Information and inquiries always welcome.

LAST LEYLANDS Withdrawn at Longstone Depot (2) August 2002
The Olympian has a front radiator, unlike the Atlantean and Fleetline. On the ECW body, the interior front panel below the windscreen curves out downwards to clear the radiator. The Alexander bodywork has a more angular enclosure.
In the 1980s with the Olympian, Tiger and Lynx, Leyland introduced an 18-inch steering wheel, to replace the traditional 21-inch steering wheel found on British buses and lorries. This was to make driving less cumbersome. Notice the gear switch on the offside, the same as on the Tiger.
