Summary[edit]

Description

On the left, GF Ward (who traded from 65 Fairfield Road, near Epping hospital) operated this unusual Willowrook Coach, SEV 845K based on a Ford R192 chassis. On the right, SOO 845K a clean Ford R226 with non-standard Ford badge, and very smart Duple bodywork. Two favourites together in this schoolboy photo, well worth the forty mile round trip cycle ride. Shame I hadn't a better camera. SOO 223K was another Willowbrook-Ford coach identical to SEV. I rather liked the fleet name on the side destination box. I wasn't aware that Ward operated a stage service, but I may be wrong - the Willowbrook vehicles look upto bus grant specification. Interesting unrelated fact: Frank SOO was a Chinese-English football international for England (during the war) and who played for Chelmsford City for two seasons at the end of the 1940s

I don't know the 845 connection, as to my recollection,no other coaches of Ward carried this number. A strange coincidence.
