It's brain picking time again! Does anyone know the following dimensions of the Metropolitan Railway milk van that is currently in Covent Garden? I am after the vehicle length over body and wheelbase but anything else would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again one and all.

16' wheelbase, 26'4' over headstocks, 27' over body, 11' 4" rail level to centre of roof arc, 8'4" body width (including bolections).
You really must get a copy of Snowdon's book! ;D

I walked past it at Acton this afternoon (the van, rather than the book).
