PYT 500R - Metropolitan Police

PYT 500R

Ford Transit control unit

Preserved, ex Metropolitan Police

Stondon Motor Museum, 29 March 2015

 

The Met had three of these Transit control units for major incidents; they didn't see a great deal of use and amazingly remained in service until 2001, this one seemingly having been here since then. Note the red and white battenburgs on the rear, presumably allowing it to also act as a control point for the fire brigade.
