5. GG944
Recent comments about St Enoch Square (here) prompted speculation about Beardmore building taxis as well as ships. GCT 318 was the only 1930 Leyland Titan to be fitted with a "heavy oil engine" manufactured by Beardmore as an experiment, and GCT ordered 30 to be installed in the forthcoming Albion Venturer SP81 buses in 1935. 1-30 had Gardner engines and 31-50 had Beardmore 6-cylinder engines built at Dalmuir but production was ceased due to reliability problems and by 1940, all had been replaced by Leyland.
