This interesting photo was taken at Holborn in October 1978 and shows a gaggle of London Transport emergency vehicles, presumably attending an incident at the station. Nearest the camera is Ford Thames Trader Auxiliary Breakdown Tender 1281F, one of three similar vehicles bought in 1963. 1281F seems to have been the most elusive of the trio, perhaps because it was based at Hainault for some of its career. Behind 1281F are Leyland Titan 1277LD (with a similar vehicle in the distance) and another of the Trader trio. The other red vehicle is a Ford D box lorry which must be 1986F as the later vehicles had yet to be delivered. I had thought that the cream Land Rover might be a London Transport vehicle as well, but I can't find a vehicle in stock at the time that matches its layout and livery. |
