Leyland S 30 T motor lorry Fleet No 33B, registration number LF 9199, built originally as a double decker bus in 1912. The message on the banner 'Save your time and ours by having tickets ready' would appear to indicate that the ladies were platform ticket collectors. They were part of a 'Win the War' procession to recruit women into the railway service taking place in September 1918.
