| The new Toyota Mirai cars may be sleek and futuristic, but take a look at these babies! London Transport operated a fleet of agricultural type tractors mainly for use as shunters in garages and works. To facilitate this, most were fitted with large 'buffers' at front and rear. All were sold by 1966 but fortunately two ended up being preserved. 351X dating from 1937 is normally at the LT Museum Depot in Acton, while 626X of 1942 resides in the East Anglian Transport Museum at Carlton Colville. Both are Fordson 1.75t models. During 2016, 351X was moved to Carlton Colville, offering the chance to pose the pair together. This photo, taken on 10th July, shows the rear of 351X with 626X beyond. |
