Advised by the Bus & Coach Society of Victoria - It is one of four 1946 Martin & King bodied White WA18 buses for the VRMS, which were ordered to restart the Beach Road service after the war, on 13/5/46. The service had been suspended during the war years. Three of the Whites had a single door, numbers 127, 128 and 129 and the fourth. number 130, had a rear door – although given their rather short length, one can only wonder why. Just why they were built so short is another mystery. They were packed on most services, which double heading common. The one in the photo is number 127, initially registered HB492 and then reregistered ( as seen) as V1478. All of them were retired in 1957 to be works buses for the VR.
