The SD42/1 on an outing

This is probably the only fully restored and roadworthy example of the large order of buses supplied to the Dutch government. It is one of the long wheelbase 42/1 type with 46 seat body by De Schelde. It entered service in July 1948.

The chassis number is 96392. These buses were fitted with the HOE9 supercharged 140bhp 8.6-litre diesel.
