Bits of Herefordshire and Worcestershire look like bits of Yorkshire

In the mid-1980s, MRW produced some timetable alteration leaflets that featured low resolution pictures of Leyland Nationals in appropriate settings on one side and the timetable on the other. When I say appropriate....

Good timing!

I was looking at that 439 timetable with another forum member a few weeks ago and it was clear it wasn't the correct vehicle or location for the route but we didn't know where it was from. You've answered our question, thank!

Looks like the Kidderminster Locals also wanted to be in Yorkshire.
