DOUBLE DECKER SURPRISE

Can You Help?

A couple of days ago, PRHS Moderator Reynante came across this at a petrol station along the SLEX at Binan (Laguna). For the very geographically challenged, this is just to the south of Metro Manila.
Over the years, I have heard the occasional rumour of at least two old Manila Leyland Atlanteans possibly existing, neither of which have ever been confirmed.
  This one does look significantly different to the Atlanteans I have seen in photos and looks like it may have had significant bodywork at some stage.

Can anyone identify the bus, the maker and know of it's history or future.
Rey mentions that there does seem to be work getting done to it.
Please email us if you can help.





The above photos were taken by, and remain the property of, Reynante Bulaon.

Thank you for sharing this terrific find.


Bus is currently located HERE in Binan.
Ironically, I went past this place just a few months ago.
