This one was built by Park Royal in Park Royal North London - as part of a series of railbuses commissioned by BR in the 1950's from various manufacturers.

Some do survive into preservation.

Park Royal also bodied the famous Routemaster bus. 

Even AC Cars produced a few to the BR specification.

Manor cabs (on Manor road) Gravesend. I love the cap and neck scarf I think this should still be the standard taxi driver apparel in 2024.

The Chatham motor company (now a Wickes that has sod all stock).

I briefly visited the Alexandra pub in the background a couple of weeks back and doubt its changed much since this image was captured.
