In 1906, George (always referred to as Crosland) bought two cars and a chassis, built by French company Morane, at the same time renting a warehouse in Chester, with the idea of assembling and selling the French designed cars. It soon became apparent that much more capital was needed and various people were persuaded to invest in the new company, including his French associate, Georges de Ville.

  • Historical Derby Fleet List
    DERBY BOROUGH TRANSPORT HISTORICAL FLEET LIST This list is not complete - Please email any additions or corrections to this list - thanks! Some notes on Derby's fleet numbering may be helpful. The prewar motorbus series reached 73, and the first wartime utility bus (a solitary Bristol K) took the fleet number 74. The series then reverted to 1, with 1-21 being Daimler and Guy utilities. By 1949, however, the new series was 'catching up' with the earlier prewar numbers, hence the jump from 41 to 75 to avoid duplication. This series then continued right up to 315, delivered in 1981; lowheight double deckers and coaches were numbered in separate series, as were the four Daimlers acquired secondhand from Halifax. A new series for new-generation double deckers was begun in 1978 by Foden NC number 101. Trolleybuses followed on from the tram series, with the first one (79) arriving in 1932; the series then continued unbroken to 243 of 1960. The motorbus series nearly caught up with the trolleybus numbers in 1966, but the complete withdrawal of trolleybus services in 1967 eliminated this problem. Trolleybuses F/No Reg.

  • Richard Haughey Recalls Conducting Days in the 1970S with Eastern Counties
    Richard Haughey recalls conducting days in the 1970s with Eastern Counties This was an article I penned for Cambus, the monthly journal of the Cambridge Omnibus Society some years ago. It had been posted on the Busman in Cambridge website which is no longer operational. So I have posted it here for your enjoyment! Many years ago, my first job on leaving Her Majesty Arm Services entailed the wearing of another uniform. That of a humble bus conductor with the Eastern Counties Omnibus Company in Cambridge. Hopefully the following article will give some an insight to the job of a bus conductor for those too young to remember them and perhaps jog the memories of some of our older visitors. This article first appeared in print some five years ago in the Cambridge Omnibus Society journal "Cambus". I first came to East Anglia in 1971 to do my army basic training at Bassingbourn nr Royston. Being somewhat off the beaten track most of our transport was provided in-house. There was the odd occasion, when transport was contracted out and a local firm by the name of Premier Travel provided vehicles in the shape of Alexander bodied AEC Reliances. By July 1978, I had returned to Bassingbourn, to await discharge, and decided that there was very little chance of getting a job back in Wales, I managed to obtain accommodation in Cambridge and commuted to Bassingbourn daily before leaving the Army in the October. It was One afternoon while looking though the doors of the Hills Road garage, that I thought now that's a job I could do and plucked up the courage to ask if there were any jobs going.
