| Having just published a photograph of unique Bedford lorry 2252B, I was very pleased to get two more amongst a bundle of 1980s photographs sent in by Derek Everson. The more interesting of the two shows 2252B parked in a crowd of grey service vehicles at Acton Works on 11st August 1985. There was an open day at the adjoining Chiswick Bus Works on this date and it is possible that the service vehicles had been moved across to make way for bus displays. The dark grey cab of 2252B is apparent, although the bodywork appears to be the normal shade. The other vehicles visible include Dodge box truck 2400D, one of the Leyland Freighter crane-equipped lorries, a Bedford TL crew-cab lorry and several Mk2 and Mk2a Ford Transit vans. The crane just visible above the cab of 2252B belongs to Ford Cargo artic 2373F. |
