Another great video, Alrx. The good old days when they could put a clapped out bus into the workshop, a few weeks later it would emerge like new again! Great footage of the trolley buses too. I used to drive OKM317 and GSD779, AA buses preserved fleet. The AEC was a pre select gearbox, the Guy Arab has the worst crash box I have ever driven! Old Joe was saying, you young people couldn't drive this. He drove out of Harthill services, he was behind me, I was driving the AEC Regent, I looked in my mirror and he had disappeared. I flashed my lights to stop SJW515 in front of me. Five minutes later, GSD779 passed us with someone else driving! I asked Joe what happened, he very sheepishly said that he couldn't get it out of first gear. I drove it back from Edinburgh to Troon. A few crunches, but the young driver did a lot better as the auld yin!
Hi Alistair love to hear those old memories watching those old archive films brings it all back Best wishes to you Alistair and family for 2021 Take care Alrx 🎅🎅🎅🍷🍷🍷👍👍👍
Do you know those women are superb, ladylike, feminine, sexy, desirable, but much much more. Strong willed and confident, modern women could learn a lot from these wonderful people.
That was an amazing clip of Glasgow's industry as well as the Trams and Buses of the time. Really enjoyed it.
Thank you Mark Alex 🥃
