266. CCS404
CCS404 was one of nine Leyland PD1s in the Western S.M.T. fleet which had Strachans L27/26R bodies when new in 1949 and which was numbered 506 later in 1949. In 1952/3 all nine were rebodied with Eastern Coachworks L27/26R bodies, 506 being done in December 1952.
Photo taken Wednesday 19 June 1963
267. CCS406
This batch of Western SMT PD1s already appears on SCT61, but not with their original Strachans bodies. Hardly surprising as, although new in 1949 they had been rebodied by 1953 with new ECW bodies, due apparently to the novel all-metal design proving to be far from robust. I believe this one was new as 508, CCS406, later becoming D508, but I don't have much reference material for Western SMT.
