PMT Beadle 'Rochester'.

Back in 1957, PMT had a small group of new Beadle integral coaches delivered. They were built using Commer running units and powered by that firm's horizontally opposed 3 cylinder two stroke engine. They gained a reputation for being fast, and for frugality when it came to fuel consumption but posessed little by way of torque and were incredibly noisy. Here 716 AEH is posed for its official PMT photograph and its from the latter's archive that the original b&w image comes which I've colourised.
