Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2011 9:29 AM Subject: Plymouth Corporation DD42 GENTLEMEN I am attaching an e-mail from Alan Johnson, who is a bus modeller and will be on our holiday tour. Do any of you know the ownership / whereabouts of the former Plymouth Crossley to which he refers? It's not shown on the Barry Bus Depot website, so presumably is not one of theirs. There was a picture it in a rally report in B&CP some time ago, seemingly with faded paintwork, so I guess it is/was in open storage. BILL BARLOW ----- Original Message ----- From: Alan Johnson To: Bill Barlow Sent: Tuesday, March 22, 2011 7:53 AM Subject: A STRANGE REQUEST Morning, Bill, I have been asked to build a lowbridge all-Crossley double decker. These were strange beasts because, instead of the usual placing of a lowbridge upper deck on top of a standard lower deck - as Leyland and EFE etc. - Crossley lowered the lower deck window line as well. Keith Jackson, a mate of mine, says that according to Andrew Porter (a mate of his) a former Plymouth Corporation one is in store in Cardiff 'down by the docks.' I would like to measure this bus on the Thursday evening when we are 'free' in Cardiff. If you can provide me with any contact details I would be happy to chase this one up. Thanks in anticipation, Alan. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Welsh Bus Photographs" group. To post to this group, send email to [email protected].
