Does anyone know whether the Rothschild salon that LT inherited from the Met had a number (it would have been most unusual for LT not to number a vehicle!)?

It was S900 and was scrapped (reluctantly we are told) 30/5/46. It had passed into the 'departmental' fleet 16/5/35.

Thank you for that! I have duly added suitable pencil footnotes (something I'd normally condemn in others... ) to the books by Snowdon and Bruce.

I wonder if metman could add the Rothschild carriage to his Harrow, so its' memory lingers? With a platform full of scale-model gasping stockbrokers to boot. On a completely irrelevant note, my Mother started work in 1942 at Laystalls Motor Engineers SE1. Before they switched to aircraft parts, she was involved in fine-tuning parts for Hispano-Suiza cars, about the most exclusive car ever made outside of possibly Duesenberg. And you can probably guess whose car was about the only one registered in England at the time. |

It could sneek onto my layout as it is dated 1938-1961 and 2002-2006!
It may have to get in the queue though!
