摘要: Telecoms junction boxes are viewed, I guess, in much the same way as ordinary folk regard buses: a functional utility to which the minimum of attention is afforded. Thanks to the talent of Leeds-based illustrator Rebecca Buchanan, that can no longer be said about one next to a park opposite The Keighley Bus Company's depot. She has turned it into a fetching representation of a historic double-decker from the town, one that survives today in splendid preservation. As Andrew Stopford's pictures show, this is none other than Keighley-West Yorkshire KDG26 (CWX 671), a 1939 Bristol K5G with 1950 Roe body. You hardly notice that it is junction box, and such is the shape of the box that it has given the bus the profile of a distinctive feature of double-deckers from another part of God's Own County, the arched roof that East Yorkshire specified for many years to pass through the arch of the North Bar in Beverley.
