Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

A LTHOUGH most busmen prefer to dream of a nice green r1 Christmas rather than of the white variety, one North Western driver due for special duty this week was hoping for the traditional stuff. The company was all set for a gesture of goodwill towards its customers in the shape of a festive sleigh and, snow or no snow, it will be gliding along on its runners. Or so it seems.

Actually, 1 am told by Mr. George Brook, general manager of the North Western Road Car Co., Ltd., that it will coast happily even on dry cobbles, for underneath the vehicle's makeup lies the utilitarian shape of a Land-Rover. A former employee is deputizing for Father Christmas, and will bring•the good wishes of the company to patrons in Stockport,

Altrincham, Northwich, Macclesfield and elsewhere.

From Mr. Brook I learn that North Western has prepared a decorated coach specially for children's parties. When not engaged for that purpose, this example of mobile illuminations will bring added light to some of the ordinary stage services.
