18. WS8059
Ken has virtually no information on this picture other than it is captioned Smiths of Reading. It is scanned from a very poor 3x2 print. It is obviously Scottish in origin, and he's ascertained that Smiths had some Leyland Cheetah's from which they removed the bodies and transferred them to other chassis. Apart from that it's open to you all to fill in the blanks.

Seen here on the pits at Larkfield garage is one of Glasgow's first batch of tin-front Leylands. These comprised, I believe, the only batch of PD2/25s built and were followed by a lot more of the eight foot wide PD2/24 model. I didn't record the identity of this one at the time and it's not possible to identify it now. The batch was L24-48 (FYS 647-671) and they had Alexander H32/28R bodies to Weymann design.

Waited years for these two liveries to be photographed side by side and an open day at Glasgow's Knightswood garage (now a housing development) on 2nd July 1994 provided the opportunity. Both buses are well known, Glasgow FYS999 and Halifax BCP671. I wonder if Halifax fans look at GCT buses and think, somethings not quite right.

Many of us bus enthusiasts who worked for the Midland Red were rather dismayed when, instead of putting the Company's own design D10 into production, they chose instead to go to the Daimler Company in Coventry for the next batch of double deckers. The economics of the situation and the difficulty of retaining sufficient coachbuilding staff at Carlyle Works would have been lost on a teenager like myself at the time. However the DD11 was the 'writing on the wall' for Company vehicle production. Here we see 5273, 5273HA, parked on Birchall Street awaiting its next turn of duty soon after delivery. 5273 was barely two months old at the date of this picture and was a Daimler Fleetline CRG6 with Alexander 77 seat bodywork.

Since its conception in the sixties, the Glasgow urban motorway network has ben opened in stretches, and one of the most "destructive" sections was at the Charing Cross area. This view from 1971, taken from a then unopened flyover, shows the motorway forging its way towards Charing Cross from St George's Cross, with the complete demolition of one side of St George's Road. LA231, CYS577B, from 1964 is on the long gone service 32, a replacement for tram service 16. While the right hand side of the street remains today, no bus service runs along this road.

Any Clyde steamer fans amongst us (and you know who you are) will instantly recognise PS Waverley at Anderston Quay, Glasgow. LA438, PYS966G, GGPTE Atlantean / Alexander from 1968, has unloaded passengers from the shuttle service 99 which met sailings on the Clyde from time to time. The ship now sails from the other bank of the river at the Science Centre further downstream, with no dedicated connecting bus service.

OK Motor Services acquired KJX3G, an AEC Reliance 6U2R with Alexander DP53F bodywork, in October 1975. It had been new to Hebble, 3, in May 1969 with C49F bodywork. The following year it was renumbered 503 and passed to West Riding in August 1971 who numbered it 100; three months later it was again renumbered, this time to 272. On withdrawal in February 1975 it passed to North's from whom OKMS purchased it. It had been re-seated as above by the time it entered service in April 1976. Safe in the knowledge that it wouldn't suffer any more identity crises as OK didn't go in for anything as vulgar as fleet numbers, it gave sterling service until withdrawal in February 1982; it was used for spares and the remains went to Blacket's of Butterknowle for scrap.
