London Electrobus Company Ltd
Registered 1906. Dissolved <1932. Company number 88381
Founded in 1906 to operate a fleet of electric/battery buses in London. Although the company wanted to put up to 300 buses on London streets they only managed to operate 20. They were the victims of a fraudster Edward Lewhess who failed to deliver buses, despite having been paid for them and the company was soon in liquidation. See an interesting article in the Economist in September 2007.
Capital £305,000 in 300,000 ordinary shares of £1 and 20,000 deferred shares of 5/-.
