Glad the premises were bought, securing the future of this important facility! Those buses sounded so strong and healthy, like they'd run forever! These people certainly know their stuff. Respect is due.

I used to work in Bridgeton bus garage in mid 70s ...although my main bus garage was Ibrox. We took turns in doing a week at bridgeton doing C.O.Fs and general maintenance.

My father was a night shift fitter at Maryhill Garage and on his days off if he was working on his car or friends my brother and myself would go with him and play on the buses, sometimes we would find money that was lost inside the destination screen, the conductors when changing the destination sometimes lost money from their pouch and our smaller hands and arms could reach where they couldn't, I remember my father saying that LA1 knocked down and killed someone on its first run out, whether anyone can confirm that or not but its great to see the old buses still running, I have membership but have still to visit.

Having had no previous experience of a Volvo Ailsa I wasn't expecting it to sound like a series one Leyland National!

Might be a good isdea to have the camera facing out the window rather than at the road.
