Physical description

Black and white negative by Wal Jack of U206 and a C Class or N class stored at Preston Workshops. Based on image the number of the second car is number 125.



Note the two cable grip cars and the bus body in the background.



Rod Atkins advised 11/10/2020:

"The bus body is one of the four James Motors of South Melbourne body's first fitted to the group of 12 Thornycroft "J" chassis in 1924-1925 numbered 13 to 24.

Then in 1929 they were all transferred to the ADC chassis but four were retained in late thirties to early forties for possible further use.

The four bodies were then fitted to the new International K6 chassis in 1943. The vehicle numbers were 19 to 308 16 to 309 24 to 311 and 18 to 312. They were finally disposed of in 1949."
