Bus drivers, Harlescott Crossroads, Shrewsbury, 1949

Imagine what it must have been like riding on this bus. Actually, some of our readers will remember what it was like, and this will bring back those memories, whether they be good, or bad.

This photo was emailed in to us by Shrewsbury transport historian Roy Pilsbury, who says: “The driver is Bill Smith, but the conductor is unknown. The location is Harlescott crossroads in 1949. Bill Smith was a long term committee member of Harlescott Football Club.

“The photo is from the Russell Mulford collection.”
