| Recorded in all sources as being an Albion Venturer, however, a 2014 discovery of its chassis in Ravensthorpe has confirmed that this bus was a Daimler.; Full-front body with additional cab door on nearside; At some stage, fitted with an Albion radiator - which no doubt contributed to the mis-identification of its chassis type.; Withdrawn 01.08.1960; Stored at Redcliffe Depot prior to sale |

| Recorded in some sources as being a Bedford SB7, however, Bedford never made an SB7 chassis. The confusion arose because GMH marketed the SB3 featuring the new wrap-around windscreen as the 7SB. This bus was the only Bedford in both the pre-MTT fleets and the MTT fleet to feature this design.; Withdrawn 04.07.1968 |
