The Leyland Lynx was bus manufactured by Leyland Bus in Workington between 1986 and 1992. Designed in 1984 this stepped-entrance single-decker bus was a successor to the ageing Leyland National. After Volvo took over Leyland Bus, the Leyland Lynx was succeeded by the Volvo B10M.

Background
The Leyland Lynx (B60) was unveiled at the 1985 International Bus & Coach Exhibition at the Earls Court Exhibition Centre. It was intended to replace the ageing Leyland National. Although the B60 was the first bus to carry the Lynx brand, Leyland had previously used it on truck chassis between 1936 and 1940, and again between 1968 and 1979. Since then the Lynx name has been revived by Ashok Leyland and it is used for a midibus.
