| Underframe built by Saunders & Stuart | | | | | Recorded in one source as having a Bolton body on an SBS-Bolton chassis | | | | | Mock-up of body constructed to demonstrate to licensing authority suitability to Perth roads | | | | | Originally hauled by White WA20 prime mover ( 19) | | | | | Initially operated in grey undercoat until delivery of second semi-trailer allowed withdrawal for painting into SBS livery | | | | | White prime mover replaced with new Foden DG ( 19) | | 25 Apr 1948 | | | Together with Foden DG prime mover, recorded in MTT records as a single unit with fleet no (472) though it is doubtful the fleet nos were ever applied to the semi-trailer | | | | | Withdrawn | | 2 May 1963 | | | Presumably sold together with Foden prime mover as one unit | | | |
