In the fifties BCT had half cab Leylands 2231-2260 most based at Selly Oak for the 27 service which went under two low bridges. 2261-2265 were Leyland Atlanteans all based at Selly Oak except 2261 which worked on the Airport Service. The drivers didn't like the Atlanteans which they said were difficult to drive.
