There were minor variations, the Dodge having chequered grilles inside the openings. Because of the blurring and the minor disguise in the picture it is not possible to say Leyland or Albion.

LAD (Leyland Albion Dodge) cab variants:- Albions- all had long doors , forward set cab. Dodges- all had short doors centred over wheels. Leyland ;- Comet had short doors Beaver and Octopus (8 wheeler) had long doors. I think -- Last edit: 2011-03-14 14:30:08
