Yet to gain fleetnumbers, this is 1034F, a Ford Thames E83W Utilecon new in June 1955 and photographed about then at Chiswick Works. A Utilecon was a van with side windows which enabled it to also be used as a minibus, and Clive Greedus wrote an article about their use by LT back in 2011. 1034F was the last of LT's Utilecons, following on from a batch of 16 similar vehicles 6 years earlier. All were withdrawn in 1960/1961, meaning that 1034F was kept for less than 6 years. |
