Firefly vs. Jaguar.

As I've said previously, the PMT archive provides a mine of photographic interest, and not exclusively their own vehicles. The company's claims officer, Norman Bennett was often on hand with his camera to record other infortunate incidents. This photo represents one of the latter, the location of which was barely 100 yards from PMT HQ in Woodhouse Street, Stoke on Trent.

Blundell's Albion Victor / Duple Firefly LSB 929 was turning into Woodhouse street when it came into contact with a Jaguar car. There are a couple of other photos detailing the same incident, but this was the most complete one of the scene.

The 41 seater coach had been new in 1964 to Bowman of Craignure.
