    This is the mock-up produced by Metro-Cammell before the prototypes and production fleet were constructed. An earlier shot of this mock-up here, and an even earlier shot, taken at Met-Cam with a West Midlands livery here.

    I can't stop looking at her gaze. Incredible! I wonder what was going though her mind at the time...

    So this is a flipped image, negative in mirror? Look at top right with Film Type stock print.
  • Donna (LOC PP) said:
    Thanks for your question about the image. The film info and notch code were reviewed and confirmed that the image is oriented correctly. During the process of checking, the TIFF image revealed another detail -- the brand name of the coveralls can be seen on the metal buckle. The embossed brand name is very small in the default display, but identifiable with magnification.
