032 Daimler Freeline.

032 Daimler Freeline. In February 1953 this dual-door Daimler LRW377 took to Dundee’s streets to test a new type of bus for the city. This underfloor-engined bus was bodied by Duple for 30 sitting and 30 standing passengers and was exhibited at the 1951 Scottish Motor Show at Glasgow’s Kelvin Hall in Edinburgh Corporation livery. Unfortunately the heavy design was unpopular with many UK operators and Dundee instead chose to buy AEC Regal IV buses. COURTESY OF THE EVENING TELEGRAPH, DUNDEE (ORDER REFERENCE DMOT22)
