Greetings Charlie,
Many thanks for the answer on the "non-pooling" of the
Q/ C&S/ FW&D way cars.
I guess the labour unions would have been none too
keen on a way car pooling concept.
Any idea on the colour of the marker light lenses
carried by the C&S way cars in 1951?
Amber/ amber/ red to the rear, or
Green/ green/ red to the rear.
Regards Mark.
