Palvans were also converted for use in the Airbrake network around about 1970, although the long link suspension was similar to a conversion used on some vacuum braked vans. The diagram suggests 6 numbers but these do not accord with all that were seen (and one listed was a Standard van to diagram 1/264). Although vans with roller bearings were available all of these converted vans had plain bearings.
Some detail photographs included.
