Default Batus

There's an old thread on BATUS here somewhere where I outright stole a photo from so I could add it to the story of George and Gracie.

The M207 radio van, Gracie... and George, the BATUS coloured M135 came to me in a 5 truck deal. A neighbour started naming the trucks after comedians so the pattern stuck.

There are public details online about BATUS but in general, the British trained in Alberta, nabbed some of our CDN gear, painted them odd colours and said WE have funny accents in Canada.

....and I'm real proud to own the 1956 July 7, 56-54341 Ser, 113505503
BATUS M135
