Seen on 7th August 1975 outside the shed that appears to have been its home, 1492B was the ambulance based at Aldenham Works from its delivery in 1968 until the closure of the works in the mid-1980s. Along with similar 1532B at Chiswick, these vehicles would be used to deal with any major injuries to staff, taking the victims to nearby hospitals where necessary. Hopefully the pair did not see much use and both have survived in preservation. The buses in the background include newly-delivered DMSs and an RT that was probably being used as a staff bus. |
