In the back??

Was there ever a bus with a Gardner in the back? I thought they were generally fitted in the front in those days.

Both Bristol and Seddon produced a Gardner powered, horizontal, underfloor, rear engined single decker bus/coach in the 60's to name but two. These engines were in an in-line configuration. (not transverse like most new double deckers of that era.) The Daimler Fleetline double decker had a transverse, rear mounted Gardner.
