Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Northern Counties Motor and Engineering C Ltd, Empire House, Mountstuart Square, Cardiff. Two double-deckers fill this stand — makin a welcome relief from the preponderance c single-deckers elsewhere. One of these two i in the livery of Reading Corporation and ha seating capacity for 76 passengers and roor for a further 18 standees. The 10m fror entrance, centre exit body is mounted on Bristol VRT chassis. The roof cavities of bot upper and lower decks are insulated an saloon heating is provided by a Clayto Dewandre U28 system. Both front screen are fitted with Trico air-operated wipers an Triplex electrically heated laminated glass.

The other vehicle is in the still striking, bi increasingly familiar, livery of the SELNE PTE. The 9.5m all-metal framed body ha seats for 72 passengers, with standing row for a further 19. Strangely this vehicle has front entrance, centre exit layout althoug SELNEC has publicly announced that it standardizing on single door vehicle! Presumably this vehicle was ordered befor that decision was taken. Heating an ventilation is supplied by a Smiths Industrie 1200 system.
