I HAVE read with interest the several letters about the blue police boxes and I wonder if any of your readers can answer my question on the same subject?

Am I right in recalling that there was a blue box in Queens Park West Drive near the end of Richmond Park Avenue, which suffered a explosion possibly caused by a gas leak which severely injured a policeman?

This was a quite a long time ago, even before the last war.
