One of two Marconi Outside Broadcast Units equipped with Marconi Mk VII colour cameras supplied to Yorkshire Television at the start of ITV's colour transmissions. Paul Marshall of Golden Age Recreations has restored and preserved this unit. It was re-sprayed in Tyne Tees livery when it made an appearance in the period TV programme 'The Royal'.
