Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway Bedford TK

My aunt took this photo for me on one of her holidays to the Lake District in 2008. I don't know much about the appliance but it is clearly a Bedford TK and is lettered for 'Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway'. The registration GEO 552N was issued in Barrow-in-Furness in 1975 and the tax disc visible expired in 2004 so it doesn't appear to have been on the road for a few years.

AEO 2 and DEO 999 were indeed Barrow-in-Furness appliances, but GEO 552N was new to Glaxo, Ulverston.

There is a very similar machine in a farmyard on the road from Duddon Bridge to Ulpha.
