DaveTT. Do you know what happened to AEC please? They were really big in the bus world in the 30/40's/50'/60's- works in Southall I believe. But just disappeared! Sorry everyone, gone off topic!
What a great pic, simpler times. Anyone want to play a side game of name-that-vehicle? I am pretty certain, that the coach is an AEC Regal.
Seeing the picture with all the charabancs reminds me of the A2 through Sittingbourne back before the M2 .Sunday evenings there would be streams of the old Red London Transport double Deckers coming back from Margate with full loads of London families on board . Used to watch them from the balcony and wave as they struggled up Snipes Hill some with steam blowing out of the bonnets.
