  • Research Guide No 22: London Buses in World War I
    TfL Corporate Archives Research Guides Research Guide No 22: London Buses in World War I Within a few weeks of the outbreak of the First World War in August 1914, over 300 buses and their crews had been requisitioned by the government and were being used in France and Belgium for troop movements. Some are known to have travelled as far as Egypt. Although the military was still very much geared to the horse, the need for mechanical transport was realised by the authorities as early as 1912. In total some 1,300 London General Omnibus Company (LGOC or “General”) double- deckers, mainly B-types, and other buses, e.g. Daimlers of the Tramways (M.E.T.) Omnibus Co, were sent abroad and proved extremely reliable in these unusual conditions. Single-deckers were requisitioned for Admiralty medical service. Some 2,500 LGOC drivers and conductors heeded the call during the first few months of the war, many having been in the ‘special transport reserve’. Around 9,500 busmen in total went to the battlefields, some also being involved with driving other vehicles on war service. File LT000105/008 contains a war service register of LGOC busmen and ancillary staff. Initially the buses remained in London livery but were later painted in khaki or green. The glass windows were prone to breakage by the men’s rifles and packs and were later removed, being replaced with wooden planks. A B-type could carry 24 fully- equipped infantrymen and their kit and performed remarkably well, considering they were operating in areas for which they were not originally intended.

  • Newsletter-Spring-2016.Pdf
    Spring 2016 Hon. Patron – Michael Aspel OBE An Evening To Remember By Haley Jenkins On the 13th February, the Weybridge Society hosted its annual Helper’s Party, where the many volunteers, long standing members and us relatively new people can talk, relax and reminisce! It took place in the lovely Weybridge Centre, complete with Valentine love heart fairy lights and a little book stall by the comfy sofas. Chairman Dave Arnold says “For many years the Society has held this annual event in appreciation of the hard work that helpers make to the Society; it enables all to catch up with friends in an enjoyable and relaxed atmosphere. I was pleased to see so many attended this year”. Members and guests brought the food, which added up to a spoilt-for-choice banquet lovingly set out by Anne Lindsey and Margaret Wicks, who worked tirelessly in the kitchen making sure the standards were kept up and that everyone could just tuck in, many thanks to them, their hard work didn’t go unnoticed! This was my first Helper’s Party event and I admit I was nervous, as many of the members have known each other for years, even decades, and I ashamedly am only just reaching my first year as a member and editor. I was immediately put at ease by several welcoming members and got to meet many new faces that evening. As editor I’m always looking for story suggestions and thanks to the lovely eager crowd who went that night, I now have plenty! Photography by Mike Buhagiar Dave Arnold gave a speech, which charted the progress that had been made within the Society this year, including our plans for Charity AGM Status.

COUNCIL NEWS Moated site, South Parit, Grayswood. Discussions relating to the proposed gift of the Scheduled Ancient Monument by the owner to the Society, first reported in Bulletin 253, are progressing well. Present proposals envisage the Society ultimately acquiring the freehold of the site, part of which would be leased to the Surrey Wildlife Trust. The Society would be responsible for maintaining the site and arranging for limited public access. It now seems probable that this exciting project will become a reality and a small committee has been formed to investigate and advise Council on the complexities involved. Council has expressed sincere and grateful thanks to the owner of South Park for her generosity. Castle Training Dig. Guildford Borough Council has approved a second season of excavation at the Castle, which will take place between the 8th and 28th July 1991.

Surnames L-M Porter, Johanna From: Wayne Lamport < > Sent: 27 September 2014 08:05 To: Reviews@ Subject: Objection to Woking Boundary changes Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Flagged To whom it may concern, I would like to express my objection to the draft changes to boundaries of Woking. I live in Hollies Ave in West Byfleet and under the new proposals, our road, together with Woodlands Ave and Old Ave would now come under the ward of Sheerwater. My objections are based on the following; I live approximately 800 yards from West Byfleet village/train station and under the draft proposals I will not be able to vote/have a say on matters affecting West Byfleet, which of course is totally unacceptable. The needs of the residents of Sheerwater are different to those of West Byfleet I chose to buy a house in West Byfleet, not Sheerwater and have invested a lot of money into my property and therefore I am concerned in house prices. As far as I know no‐one has undertaken any investigation on the possible effect of houses prices, again totally unacceptable. I do no believe the proposed re‐generation of Sheerwater has been taken into consideration when calculating ward sizes, therefore will totally skew the sizes of wards once the re‐generation is complete.
