Default Bombay Bus

Hello Les,

Is that...

"1. Commer Q2 tractor/ Queen mary trailer cut short at the rear, this conversion i believe was for use as a laboratory or for mobile office use "

what was known as a Bombay Bus. Many low loaders and flatbeds were coverted over the years for use at RAF bases, and on construction sites in the Middle East into what was known as a Bombay Bus.

Some were double deckers.

Regards

Nick Balmer
