Leyland is a town in the South Ribble district, in the county of Lancashire, England. Leyland is approximately six miles south of the city of Preston. Throughout the 20th and 21st century, the community has seen a large growth in industry, population and farming, due to the establishment of Leyland Motors, housing developments and the surrounding usable arable land.
English Leyland was an area of fields, with Roman roads passing through, from ancient Wigan to Walton-le-Dale. It was left undisturbed for many centuries until rediscovered shortly after the Battle of Hastings (1066). Leyland is mentioned in the Domesday Book (1085). In 1066 King Edward the Confessor presided over the whole of Leyland. The manor was divided into three large ploughlands, which were controlled by local noblemen. In the 12th century, it came under the barony of Penwortham.
The area of Worden, which is now Worden Park, was one of nine oxgangs of land granted to the Knights Hospitaller, by Roger de Lacy, in Lancashire, but the land was not assigned to any individual and a local man, who was a very close friend of de Lacy, Hugh Bussel, was assigned holder of the land in 1212.
The town is famous primarily for the bus and truck manufacturer Leyland Motors, which between the 1950s and 1970s expanded and grew to own several British motor manufacturers, including BMC, Standard-Triumph and Rover, culminating in the massive British Leyland company. The truck business still operates today as Leyland Trucks, and is owned by Paccar. Leyland is also home to one of the UK's leading maintenance and utility companies, Enterprise Plc on Centurion Way. The Leyprint company is situated on Leyland Lane, a company which produces menus and other printed items.
Leyland railway station is on the West Coast Main Line and loads of trains pass by every Miunite the very placement of which moved the civic centre of the town briefly, including Leyland Police Station.
There is a marker adjacent to the old Leyland Motors Spurrier works declares the halfway point on the railway journey between Glasgow and London, some 198 miles in either direction. John Fishwick & Son served the town's public transport needs. They also connected the town to Chorley and Preston.
Leyland is made up by six different areas, the town centre itself counts as the main retail side, with the railway station, library and shops nearby. The other areas include Broadfield, Moss Side, Worden Park, Turpin Green and the Wade Hall estate. The Leyland Band have also recently moved to the town, after several years in various other rehearsal locations, and now have a permanent home in Farington Business Park.

60103 'Flying Scotsman' - 5Z44 Carnforth Steamtown - Shildon - 22/07/19
En-route to Locomotion Railway Museum in Shildon, LNER A3 60103 'Flying Scotsman' stops off at the National Railway Museum York to resupply on coal for her visit to county Durham. Her unannounced fleeting visit allowed for the rare opportunity of up close, detailed shots of the world famous loco.
Behind Scotsman, LMS Jubilee 45699 'Galatea' and LNER 4468 'Mallard' could also be seen, with the Jubilee stationed at the museum for West Coast Railway's Scarborough Spa Express tours and the A4 having undergone a routine check up earlier that morning.

Welcome to my channel
UK Coach Rally 2018
The 64th UK Coach Rally was held on 28th & 29th April 2018
at Blackpool, Lancashire.
Since the first event in Clacton way back in 1955, the UK Coach Rally has acted as a great showcase for coaching and coaching people.
Whether’s it’s presenting and celebrating the very latest models in fleets up and down the country, or celebrating the coachbuilder’s art in preserving the best of the vehicles of the past, the Rally is the place to be!
Meanwhile, the highly demanding driving competition is a reminder of the professional skills involved in manoeuvring today’s huge vehicles in tight spaces, driving them safely on our roads and getting the industry’s passengers to their destination in a calm, friendly and relaxing manner.
This channel is mainly dedicated to videos of my hometown, Blackpool, Lancashire, England.
Blackpool is a beautiful seaside town on the north west coast of England.
We have many cool attractions here including our world famous Blackpool Tower, the Pleasure Beach, three piers and a lovely sandy beach..
Blackpool is a relatively poor town that gets (unfairly in my opinion), a lot of bad press..
The aim of my channel is to show Blackpool in a better light..
No town or city is perfect so it's best to appreciate the good parts wherever you live :)

Blackpool Heritage Tram Tours and The 65th UK Coach Rally Blackpool 7 April 2019
Had a great day in Blackpool on Sunday 7th April. Blackpool Heritage Tram Tours were operating a nice selection of Heritage Trams between Pleasure Beach, North Pier and Cabin.
The 65th UK Coach Rally was also being held over this weekend in Blackpool and what a cracker it was too. All of the coaches were beautifully turned out and were a credit to the companies and Drivers. The high standard of Driving skills also deserves praise. Everyone involved should be very proud of themselves.
Once again I was annoyed at only being able to make it on Sunday and then I managed to lose an SD card with a fair amount of footage on it so Sincere apologies if your Coach is not included in the video.
A great day of Coaches and Trams and good weather, Spoiled only by losing some of my footage.
I have put the Award Presentations on a separate video

UK Coach Rally Blackpool 2018
The 64th UK Coach Rally was held in Blackpool on 28th and 29th April 2018. Due to work I only managed to attend one day of last years Rally and enjoyed it so much I promised myself to be there for both days this year. Since then I have missed quite a few events I had planned to go to for the same reason and with the risk of sounding like a broken record, once again work prevented me from being there for both days.
The Rally itself is certainly on my 'must go to' list. With such a fantastic variety of coaches the event surely must be in every Coach enthusiasts diary.
This was filmed on Sunday 29th April and hopefully gives you a look at the event if you were unable to get there.
Many Thanks to all the Drivers, Marshals and Coach Companies for a well organised and thoroughly enjoyable event.
I hope to see you all in action next Year.
