Does anyone know this GSE ????

Well I was talking with my dad today and he came to talk about travelling in the 70's and he told me that he came across a 'BOAC Truck Bus' and I have never heard of it so i searched it up and there was nothing and I asked him to describe it to me and he did and this ( below ) is what I interpretated as a drawing on paint and he said that was it. Does anyone know it ?

Re: Does anyone know this GSE ????

It's funny, because I actually described the Soviet equivalents in this thread.

I suppose it works like an average everyday tractor trailer, but with passenger doors and seats in the inside. I can't say much about the UK versions, but I do know that the Russian equivalents were likely pulled by ZiL-130s.

Hey, model plane manufactures, how about some Braniff PZL 230Fs.

Re: Does anyone know this GSE ????

When we left Holland for Canada in 1959 - I was 9 years old - I remember the bus from the Schiphol terminal to our DC-7C was like that.
