Bus in London with wood gas generator

Tottenham Court road in London 1927

  • Rob Telford said:
    That's Tottenham Court Road at the junction with Oxford Street. The building on the left was demolished in 1928 to make way for the Dominion Theatre.

    The bus on route 14, XN5034, is a Leyland LB of 'Omega', which they bought secondhand in 1924. It was their only bus and they kept it until replacement by a new bus in 1931. I cannot make out the full registration of the bus in front on route 284 but it is from the 'Overground' fleet and all their XT-registered buses were Dennises. It is going all the way to Hadley Highstone, north of Barnet. The covered top bus going the other way is a 'General' NS-type - the Metropolitan Police had only finally given permission for the operation of the covered top version at the beginning of 1926 following experimental operation the previous year, so this is an early one.

    I believe these tram stops were on Colmore Row and that the large building in the background is the old Post Office at the west end of New Street. The Number 10 route went out to Washwood Heath, the stop in front will be the Number 8 to Alum Rock.

    An excellent photograph. It takes me back a few years to the 1930s!
  • mikeyashworth said:
    Birmingham (and the adjoining Black Country network) was unusual for a UK conurbation in that the 3ft 6in gauge (not standard 4ft 8.5in) was used - car 804 was one of a batch built in 1928/9 with Brush bodywork. It is one of the few Birmingham cars (routes 8 & 10?) that was fitted with a bow collector rather than the usual trolley pole. Retired at Last - I think this terminus was in Martineau Street?
  • Retired at last said:
    mikeyashworth You could well be right, I no longer think the background building is the old post office. It's a pity that the Martineau Street area has been redeveloped, possibly twice, since this photo, so we can't even try looking on the ground for an answer.
