A15 YEL
arrives at Rochdale
Town Hall to await
the official send
off. |
....and
on a beautiful sunny morning
(what else for YellowaY?)
A15 YEL departs on her journey to
Blackpool-Cleveleys and
Fleetwood but... |
....it
could not leave Rochdale without
stopping to pay respect outside
the former Yelloway
Motor Services Ltd.
Coach Station site
at Weir Street... |
|
|
|
....where,
underneath the offices of former
YellowaY Chairman Mr. Hubert
Allen O.B.E.. |
....the
memories of those wonderful
bygone coaching days were
rekindled with nostalgia... |
....A15
YEL
passes the former YellowaY Coach
Station on Central Drive Blackpool
where they operated
1928/1947.... |
|
|
|
....and
where this scene depicts a
YellowaY London departure in
1930 |
|
|
|
Driver Jim
Pemberton guides the coach into
Lonsdale Road Coach Station, Blackpool where there was a
great surprise awaiting former
YellowaY driver... |
....and now Blackpool resident,
Mr. Bernard Dickinson. Bernard's
wife Barbara had secretly arranged a trip for
him in the new coach from
Blackpool.... |
....and
Bernard (left) was highly
delighted at the thought of travelling on a luxury YellowaY
coach once again and also in the
future! |

|
Bernard is ready to board for
his surprise trip |
