Скачать или смотреть Leyland Buses, The CIA & Sabotage: The Cuban Leyland Olympics

Leyland Motors had always been a big player when it came to export. One of their biggest customers, if not the biggest customer was the Cuban Government. They took a steady stream of Leyland Royal Tiger buses and then Leyland Olympic buses.

However, in the 1960's Cuba found itself being blockaded from the rest of the world by America following their alliance with the USSR. Leyland ignored this trade blockade and continued to sell single decker buses to Cuba. This is the story of what happened which resulted in an East German cargo ship sinking in the River Thames whilst carrying some of the buses.
