Thanks, good tip. But the one at the top of this thread has a 2B1 body, the same as the one depicted below. AFAIK, the 2B1 was not produced as an office variant, like the 2C2 you listed.

So the subject body may have been an in-theatre conversion, though not a one-off. As this filled an obvious need, this was later taken in production as a factory-fitted office body like the 2C2.
