LGOC X type The X-type was the first bus built by London General Omnibus Co. Ltd (LGOC). The manufacturing part of LGOC became AEC in June 1912. ... A total of 60 X-type buses were built, together with one lorry. Production ended in December 1909, and was followed by the B-type, see below. Looks like some sort of replica to me. I’d like to see its wheels and axles. -- Last edit: 2021-08-03 21:00:40 |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGOC_B-type LA9928 returns no data on BLOTW. Or maybe not? However…. Link to "www.ltmuseum.co.uk" -- Last edit: 2021-08-03 20:55:44 |

Yes, some sort of replica. Other images from the movie show the registration LA9928 which is the 1911 LGOC B type in the London Transport museum and presumably the inspiration, but it is not a faithful copy. |

One of the other screencaps here seems to show pneumatic tyres :-) There are visual differences from the preserved B340, seen here: Link to "commons.wikimedia.org" |

I don’t know the policy on replicas. How about calling it Disney B-type lookalike? |

You classify it by the chassis. There was at least one Ford R1014 built as a replica B-type, and you might recall the Bristol LH rebuilt as a charabanc. |

We've identified this vehicle using the details you provided LGOC UNKNOWN 1921 Registration number: LA 9928 Body type: D/D Bus/Coach Colour: Red Date of first registration: January 1921 ✓ SORN Date of last V5C (logbook) issued 24 December 2019 1921 plate date can be disregarded - it was the year a central database was started, which mopped up lots of earlier registrations but assigned a "new" date. |

Please change to unknown replica. Genuine it isn’t. |
