Portrait of a Ford / Duple Dominant.

            For those who may have considered there wasn't sufficient 'bus' aspect in yesterday evening's posting, here's about as much of a frame full of the same vehicle that its possible to get from the same source. This then is PMT's 1973 Ford R226 Duple Dominant WVT 425L in all its newness and glory. 
Needless to say, you got what you paid for and the Ford chassis fulfilled a role for a cheaper shorter life dual purpose vehicle. As we've said, they weren't popular with crews, and probably weren't with the maintenence staff either, but the accountants would have been happier with the purchase price. All that said, the next little delivery of almost visually identical Leopards, with their inordinately heavy steering weren't popular with drivers when they entered service.
