Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

has been developed by Carter Engineering Co. (Tamworth) Ltd. and the first is soon to be put into service by A. and C. McLennan (Perth) Ltd. This is based on a Commer Avenger chassis, a passenger model being necessary because the controls are suitably offset to allow one car to be carried alongside a narrow driver's cab. There is 5 ft. 8 in. space between the cab and the side framework.

It is planned to build similar six-car transporters on other makes of chassis. One of the first will be a Leyland Leopard with similar support structure adaptable to Leyland Tiger Cub, A.E.C. Reliance and an Atkinson passenger chassis. These versions will have a special tandem twoman cab designed by Carter and will be able to operate with a six-car trailer Carveyor to make a 12-car carrying outfit.
