The Tricycle Van was introduced in the 1930s, lasting right through to the 1950s and is certainly an unusual vehicle to be used as an ambulance. Here we see it registered BAU 254 in dark green with gold and black Ambulance lettering and the Red Cross logo on both sides beneath masked silver side windows. Similar masking on both rear doors creates a round window effect. Other details are finished in black, including chassis, spoked wheels, wheel arches, bumpers, interior and steering wheel.
