General B340 K424 Acton - a photo on Flickriver

General B340 K424 Acton

The London Transport Museum has a large store at Acton containing many relics from London's transport activities. Occasionally, there are open days when many of the items can be seen, though they are not laid out very well for photographic purposes.

There are many buses.

General introduced the B type around 1910 as the first mass produced bus in the world. In 1912 twenty buses were built each week!. B340 entered service in 1911 and, after use on the Western Front finished bus service in London in 1924.

In 1919, the B type was superceded by the K type. K424 was built in 1920 and is one of only two survivors.
