Details: Amongst the shortest-lived service vehicles were the large batches of 'radio cars' used by bus inspectors, these being replaced generally every two years. Five batches of Ford Escort estate cars saw use during the 1970s, 2058F being one of 22 new in 1977. The illuminated roof roundels were carried over from the previous batch and were thus considerably older than the cars themselves. 2058F was allocated to Victoria Garage and was photographed at the nearby bus station on 28th February 1978. Note the duplicated mirrors, and the lack of buses.
