P3402

Subject: Bradford C.T. 575 (KW 6065)
Chassis: English Electric type E11
Body: English Electric H30/26R
Location: Preston, Dick, Kerr Works
Date: 1929

575 undergoes tilt test at the Preston factory. In this case the upper saloon is fully laden and the vehicle should tilt to 27 degrees. As can be seen, it has only reached 25 degrees. The mistake was quickly spotted and another photograph taken at the correct angle. As it is of poorer quality and virtually identical composition it has not been included in this gallery.
