Subject: Bradford C.T. 726 (DKY 726) Chassis: Karrier W Body: Park Royal UH30/26R Location: Bierley, Rooley Lane Date: c.1946
726 is, I believe, on Rooley Lane which was often used for Bradford official photographs. It is in original condition carrying the fully lined lighter-blue livery introduced during the war.
Note how the standard utility body from Park Royal featured valances over the side windows as seen here which in Bradford tradition were removed from some, but not all, before they were rebodied.
