But I think the luggage in roof rack changes, so may be 2 different arrivals being filmed. Albion grille badge. Can't read the plate but looks AB 1234 format starting with G - if GG for Glasgow = 1930-33, GM Motherwell & Wishaw was 1920-47(!!), and GS Perthshire 1928-41

johnfromstaffs ◊ 2016-06-30 08:49	Albion, looks like a bus built on light truck chassis, rather than purpose built bus chassis. https://www.flickr.com/photos/boblovelockflickr/15062917737 Slightly later model, but example of what the Post Office did on an Albion chassis. /vehicle_196039-Albion-30-cwt-LB24-1925.html Earlier, but demonstrates radiator design. http://pics.imcdb.org/10314/07-38lyonsandshopb.jpg Albions didn't change that often or that much! Motherwell and Wishaw two letter series lasted until 1959, which commenced with GM 9924. -- Last edit: 2016-06-30 09:41:48
Sunbar ◊ 2016-06-30 10:49	The inverted 'stirrup' type headlamp mount on the driver's side makes me think it originated from the 1920s; so probably another 1925-1933 Albion 30 cwt LB24?
Sunbar ◊ 2016-06-30 13:16	With the small enamelled badge this radiator design was first introduced on the bus chassis and later the truck chassis (both LB24) source: http://www.trucksplanet.com/catalog/model.php?id=958 the larger sunburst radiator full width badge almost certainly is later. 'GD' as a registration suggested by 'Skywatcher68' looks right July 1925 to March 1928.
