SCT '61
Albion Venturer Chassis Index

Park Royal-bodied Albion Venturer supplied to Hyderabad in 1946.
Thirty buses of this type were supplied to Hyderabad. The first was fully-assembled by Park Royal (there's a photo in Alan Townsin's TPC book on Park Royal Vol 2) and the remainder were CKD kits for local assembly.
What puzzles me is that where the first and last side windows should be on the upper deck there's a solid panel and I'm wondering why. It can be seen in the photo in the Park Royal book, so was part of the original specification. Anybody have any ideas?

Photographer unknown, SJB Collection, early 1950s, Hyderabad
