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.

Friends of Classic London Buses of the Fifties for Those Actively Involved in Or Supporting the Preservation of London Buses, Coaches and Trolleybuses of the Past
Friends of Classic London Buses of the Fifties For those actively involved in or supporting the preservation of London buses, coaches and trolleybuses of the past With the recent publication of Capital Transport's book on the GS class reviewed in the previous Newsletter, I thought we could open with Martyn Hunt's photograph of GS 27 laying over at the rear of Harlow Garage in 1963, his only photograph of a GS in service. This one in later life spent a period as a mobile shop in Hemel Hempstead and we illustrated it in that role in an earlier Newsletter. It was not one of the survivors of this popular class, alas. Newsletter 163 March 2020 Opening Lines As referred to briefly last time, we now welcome many more readers in the shape of London Bus Museum members who have told the Museum their e-mail addresses. For the benefit of those members I thought perhaps I should outline who we are and what we aim to do. The “Friends” is successor to the former RT and RF Register, started by Peter Gomm back in 1982 as an owners' club for those vehicles and their contemporaries. In those days much less was known about the vehicles, and preservation, although not new, was still in its relative infancy so there was a need for us all to help each other out with advice, information, sources of parts, ways to overcome problems and so on. We also provided histories of vehicles for those who did not know the life story of their buses.
