Thanks for posting the pictures of the Duxford body. I was looking at mine the other day and wondering what the upright post was for. Now I know. I will try to sort out the photo of the makers plate. The sides are hinged in the middle in fact it is identical to the Duxford one from what I can tell. The colour even looks right given that it has faded over the years. Mine has a door at the back instead of a tail gate. I also found the remains of the ladder whilst clearing out the back.

Hello all, this will be my first post on this forum. As you might guess from the user name I am a steam bloke.
Very interested in this thread, are these workshop bodies rare as I have one up the yard in good condition (as found). It has a build date of 1918 on the Leyland plate and body number E 86. The chassis with it is not original and has been chucked under at some point. The back wheels on the chassis are the Y spoke pattern, which to me look Foden, but it can't be a steamer as the chassis is not strong enough and it has a worm diff on it.
Any ideas?

Maybe I should move this thing on! The more I read the more I realise that this is not my field. I only brought it because it looked interesting and would go well behind the engine.
