TWY 8 is a rebodied chassis. The chassis was originally under a Burlingham coach body, numbered 57 in the fleet of South Yorkshire Motors, and registered JWT 112.
The chassis was used to construct South Yorkshire Motors (Pontefract) number 81 (TWY 8) in 1958. The double-deck body was built by Roe of Leeds as L27/26RD layout. The original Burlingham body was fitted to South Yorkshire Motors 51, which became number 57 and registered as DYG 53. This vehicle also still survives today in prservation.
At the moment work is in progress on TWY 8.
