NOTES: |
|
| Recorded in one source as having had the rear emergency door removed & converted to B49F during Jul 1970, however ex-Metro (111) was the only underfloor-engined bus in the MTT fleet to have retained the rear emergency door - a feature which made it immediately identifiable when it was discovered in Denmark on 01 Aug 2004 | | | | | Withdrawn | | 1 Aug 1977 | | | Converted to AEC 6sp synchromesh post MTT withdrawal | by | Nov 1983 | | | Incomplete conversion to raised-deck mobile home with fibreglass body panels | by | Aug 2004 | |
