This picture is looking down William Brown Street, Liverpool in the 1960s.
The Liverpool Corporation bus is a Leyland PD2, and the 8 wheeled Leyland
tipper is Oliver Harts of Coppull, Lancashire. The Morris Commercial which
is painted red looks like one of many that North Western Gas Board operated
in the late 1950s and into the 1960s. Their red paint was from Masons of
Derby, and it was called “Light Masons Red”. Some of these Morris lorries
were coke tippers, and some were flatbeds for bagged coke delivery.
