  8. Yes the BR test had gone, but the licences remained, issued by your supervisor on production of the DOT licence. I passed my DOT test in March 1977 and was driving BR vans and cars straight afterwards. edited to clarify test / licence
  9. One to start you off, URC 358S Escort mk II 1.3l estate in sahara beige, known as the 'Thyristor Car' because it was funded by the telecom upgrade budget on the Birmingham Division, required to run thyristor locomotives. Was actually used as an S&T office runabout. Tony Cotterell who booked it out more than most, took it home to Kidderminster "to wash it" and crashed into the railway bridge parapet on the westbound A456 between Blakedown and Kidderminster.
