Conveyances for the whole works (9)
I believe the answer is:
omnibuses
This clue could be a double definition.
'conveyances' is the first definition.
(omnibus is a kind of conveyance)
'whole works' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'for the' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for omnibuses that I've seen before include "traffic on the roads" , "Large volumes" , "public transport" .)
