Southdown six-wheeler

Southdown ran four six-wheeled Leyland Tigers on their service between Eastbourne and Beachy Head. Delivered in 1934/35 with bodywork by Short Bros., all were withdrawn in 1952. Here is 552 of the later batch on Eastbourne front in 1949. I'm not sure what is going on between the clippie and inspector!

 

Scanned from an acquired 6x6cm negative, photographer unknown.
