1. CAL194 ... 1936 AEC Regent Park Royal, CAL194 had been Mansfield & District's 94. It then served Essex Police as a mobile road safety exhibition for nearly ten years: its condition belies its age, 30 years when this picture was taken.

2. FVO762 ... The Weymann trailer of one of the ex-Mansfield and District articulated buses, FVO762/3.

3. FVO762 ... This is a mystery shot and a most unusual vehicle. FVO762 was a Commer Superpoise of just pre-war or just post-war vintage and is seen here with a trailer of utility appearance.

The ensemble was accredited to Mansfield & District, which I'm sure it's not, although it does seem to be registered in that area. (1943/4)
