C544 RAO was a pre-production Leyland Lynx built at the Workington factory, hence its registration by the Carlisle LVLO. Its seating arrangement was B51F. It became Ribble 901 in May 1986 at a time when NBC subsidiary companies were adopting new liveries as part of the sell-off of the NBC; this being a version of the Ribble privatised livery of Poppy Red with touches of grey, yellow and white. The Lynx remained unique in the Ribble fleet and in 1991 after both Ribble and Cumberland had become part of the growing Stagecoach empire, it was transferred to Cumberland as number 255 to join similar vehicles in the fleet. In 1996 it became number 544 in the fleet of Stagecoach Transit of Stockton-on-Tees.
