Runciman buses
3rd November 2003

Runciman, a subsidiary of the Stagecoach group, operates a fleet of mainly elderly buses on charter and school bus services in the Upper Hutt area. It is a haven for old Leyland Leopards. However, by early 2005 the fleet of Leopards had been all but withdrawn so much of what is presented is now consigned to history. Buses are displayed in numerical order.
