   I think that is an old Atlantean DF model, before the Bombardiers came out in the multi-green livery.

   If I remember right, they still had the string across the back from the stairwell to the back that could be pulled to signal a stop.

   I was once told there was a code to the bells: one bell – stop at next stop; two bells – signal from conductor to go; three bells – emergency

   Not sure if true, but it makes some sense.

      Hi Slightly, three bells was a signal from the conductor – bus full

   AN68 Atlanteans with Vanhool McArdle bodywork complete with their original 0680 Leyland engines by the looks of it.
