Just received Destination Western Front: London's Omnibuses Go To War, by Roy Larkin.
Excellent. Lots of info. Some new pics. Clears up several confused areas.
Covers D-Type (which were just B-Types under another name, and nothing to do with Daimler of Germany), B-Type, Y-Type, and several other makes that don't usually get a mention. All the variants explained. A lot more Daimlers saw service after the Antwerp expedition.
Good stuff.

Worth every penny. I'll be interested to hear what you think. Minor point of interest: the cages on the sides of the mobile pigoen lofts were collapsible and could be folded flat when the vehicle was travelling.

There isn't much to see inside. I have a photo somewhere of the interior of Old Bill at the IWM. I'll scan it if you wish.
