F C Moore 'Viceroy Coaches' of Saffron Walden.
In the early 1960s a bunch of us visited Viceroys premises.
Mr Moore showed us this coach bodied by Beadle with a view to us buying it for preservation,it was withdrawn in the yard and had a 7.7 AEC diesel engine fitted.The original petrol unit was in a shed with a rebodied Rolls Royce Silver Ghost full of chickens in there too.
Unfortunately we could not raise the money to buy it.
There was a six wheeled Albion various AECs two Tilling Stevens as well as double deckers at that time.Some made it to preservation but most got the chop.
