Thirty years since the demise of independent A.1. here's another reminder of the last day and Parkhouse Garage Alexander bodied Leyland Fleetline looking a bit worse for wear heads to Ardrossan with it looks like Bill Swanson at the wheel a former Western SMT driver when I was at Ardrossan and a gentleman to boot. The Fleetlines were not to last long after the takeover and would end up with Village Tours in Liverpool in the main. ASD26T had been involved in an accident and carried a different lower front panel to the rest of it's T registered cousins looking the same as the P registered batch around the cab area.

An acquired black and white negative. This one was a favourite photo of mine in years gone by when used by RHG Simpson and I bought a print of it a long time ago. Recently the negatives seem to have come up for sale and I'm not entirely sure of the copyright situation of these but I put a copyright notice on it as if it isn't mine it belongs to someone else. Taken in April 1966 behind Parkhouse Garage this is a fine study of Iain Duff"s first brand new bus EAG10 new in 1951 and a fine motor that lasted till 1970. It was always well kept and can be seen shiny as a new pin here. I remember the vacuum brakes squealed and one night I heard it all the way from the top of New England to the stance at Ardrossan every braking point at every road end. This is the best shot I ever saw of it though,.
