Vintage Daimler Parade
Standing together on the chemist's corner on Beamish Museum town street (and no doubt sizing one another up) are these two Daimler buses of the past, both owned and used by the museum.
On the left is Roe bodied Ex-Darlington Corporation No.4, a 1964-built Daimler CCG5 registered 304 VHN, complete with a 5-cylinder Gardner engine and a "quirky" crash gearbox.
On the right is Weymann bodied Ex- Rotherham Corporation No.220, 1954-built Daimler CVG6 registered KET 220, with a six cylinder Gardner engine and a Wilson pre-select gearbox.
