Leyland – other models: trucks and buses, from the Octopus and Hippo through the Titan and Atlantean to the Roadtrain T45, six-cylinder diesels, gross vehicle weights up to 24.4 tonnes

Leyland ROADTRAIN T45
Pictured: Leyland ROADTRAIN T45

Leyland Motors, based at its works in the town of Leyland in Lancashire, was one of Britain's largest commercial-vehicle makers, building both trucks and buses before the company was absorbed into the British Leyland Motor Corporation in the 1960s and 1970s. This page combines both vehicle types: heavy trucks such as the eight-wheeled Octopus and the Hippo for long-distance haulage, and double-deck buses such as the Titan, Atlantean, PD2, PD3 and Routemaster, whose chassis Leyland supplied to coachbuilders and transport operators. The Roadtrain T45 of the 1980s represents the brand's last independent truck generation before DAF's takeover in 1987.

The register holds 28 versions here, all six-cylinder, with displacements from 4,500 to 12,170 cc, kerb weights from 3,700 to 14,680 kg, gross vehicle weights from 6,610 to 24,408 kg, lengths from 5,700 to 10,150 mm and widths from 2,260 to 2,540 mm.

Leyland's double-deck buses shaped the streetscape of British cities for decades, and the Routemaster became a symbol of London; the truck ranges competed in long-haul work with Bedford, ERF and continental manufacturers. After the merger with DAF, Leyland Trucks' production passed to the new parent company.

Used, on the buses check for corrosion in the floor pan and the bodywork, which often mixes wood and steel, and the condition of the gearbox and air-brake system; on the trucks, check wear in the axles and leaf springs and the tightness of the older diesel engines. Parts are supplied by British historic-commercial-vehicle specialists and bus enthusiast clubs.
