P3988

Subject: Bradford C.T. body frame
Body: English Electric
Location: Preston, Dick, Kerr works
Date: 1934

The body structure takes shape, at this stage only that between bulkheads. Or at least it would be but these particular bodies didn't have a front bulkhead in the conventional sense which was to prove one of its initial weaknesses. The line shafting pulleys appear at first glance to be part of the assembly, but of course they are not.
