Another vehicle on show at the July 1983 Chiswick Works open day was former 1081Q, an AEC Mercury pole carrier, seen displayed on the ramps of one of the step-frame trailers. 1081Q was recorded as being sold to the London Trolleybus Preservation Society in 1976 but has not been heard of recently. | |||

Note added Mon 07/09/2009 by Damon A Mercury Pole-carrier (presumably this one?) is once more for sale in the latest edition of ''Bus and Coach Presrvation'' magazine. It can be yours if you write out a Czech for gbp2,750. A worthwhile use for some of the 1037J, I mean RT1-appeal money methinks ....cue the abuse. |
Note added Wed 09/09/2009 by Jonathan Bale Damon, I agree, I would much rather money from the RT1 appeal be used for this. Why should Cobham be put over a barrel to bail out a bloke who decided to rebuild RT1 then decides unless Cobham pay up he'll send it to the USA? Let him, they wont get a penny from me towards RT1's saving. |
