can't see the registration number of the bus in the press reports I can find, but it looks very much like the (Mk 1 metrobus) that seems to be the fleet of

http://www.manchesterbustours.co.uk/ (Earl's Limousines, Warrington)

their bus is KYV 663X, a 1981 MCW Metrobus, new to London Transport, and converted to part open-top for London sightseeing tours, later used by Arriva Wales on a N Wales coastal services.

If you can find a picture of the Wigan celebrations that shows the registration of the bus, that will either confirm this or prove me wrong!
