Cab over engine with wedge shaped cab possibly Thornycroft Nippy. http://ccmv.aecsouthall.co.uk/p129790859/h24c6634a#h2be399f4 Also Thornycrofts look to be bought by GWR pre-war. Little more than a guess so only very low probability, not worth its own listing unless more is seen in a different movie.
