Also noted - lots of brand new ducktail Cambridges at Longbridge; no longtails seen, but there are several longtail A95s alongside. Which was unexpected as I assumed they'd all change together. But it seems A95 longtail started Oct 56, but ducktail Cambridges lasted until Feb 57 before longtail A55 appeared. So both body styles ran in parallel for a few months.
