Details: It is unlikely that 1456MR and 1457MR have actually met since being put into service by London Transport in 1966 (unless you know better!). So to provide a frontal comparison I have resorted to a composite image. Apart from the mirrors, most of the differences visible between the two are thought to post-date their LT service. |

Damon | Notice the different height of the registration plates which are mounted where the TOWING sign was. The reversible TOWING signs were fitted during the 1970's and are another useful difference between the two vehicles. | Sun 22/04/2007, 20:12 |
aecsouthall | Useful seeing them side by side like this. Notice also the sidelights are different. The stalk-type sidelights on 1457MR (right) were originally fitted on 1456MR as well, but they have subsequently been replaced by another type seen sometimes on Mk I Militants. | Sun 13/04/2008, 19:56 |
