History

Of the 95 Pathfinders produced, London Regional Transport subsidiaries purchased 38 on Dennis Lance chassis and all 30 Scania N113CRLs. They were London's first low-floor buses. The first examples were operated by London United on route 120 and CentreWest on route 222. ^{[3] [4]}

Other purchasers (all on Dennis Lances) included Badgerline, London & Country and Northern General. ^[4] The Pathfinder was succeeded in 1995 by the Axcess-Ultralow. ^[5]
