| 1416LD, the least ungainly of the Leyland Titan breakdown tenders, was initially allocated to the Signal Engineers at Lillie Bridge. It transferred to the bus support fleet in 1975 and photos from its earlier role are hence rare. Shown here is a view taken at Lillie Bridge on an unrecorded date. The 'LT URGENT' lettering on the headboard was in red (appearing as 'LTE URGENT' on some other Titans). This was soon changed to LONDON TRANSPORT in black on white above URGENT in white on black, as seen on Titan 1276LD. Parked behind the framework on the left is what appears to be a half-cab coach, while a Bedford CA minibus is parked behind 1416LD. Neither are believed to be LT-related. |
