This is fantastic a lot of childhood memories remember the garage in Gartlea, was the first garage in railway rd just along from Coatdyke Station, Thanks for the upload
How many pupils went to Rochsolloch Primary. 7 buses? That's a lot. And why did we get rid of the trams. Madness. I lived in POlains 60 years ago so it was mainly Eastern Scottish for us, although I do recall a Baxters bus that also went to Longriggend and beyond.
Thanks for this, my father-in-law was a driver with Baxter's and latterly an Inspector during the early seventies. He would have loved this. My Mother in Law was also a clippie probably during the fifties early sixties.
Thanks for uploading this. My Grandpa was a bus driver on Baxter's buses...possibly late 50's and during the 60's. He sometimes drove the Kirkwood/kirkshaws/Old Monkland routes. Was trying so hard to see if I could recognise him driving any of the buses here but the cabs are too dark to see ! Amazing to see old Coarbridge and Airdrie too.
