One person from Walsall garage in the 1970's who I see from time to time is Dave Wall - I don't know if you knew him. He's involved with the Aston Manor Transport Museum nowadays - as are some other ex WMPTE people.

Thanks for a great memory lane ,regards Jim

I've never drove buses, but travelled a lot on the ones in my videos.

Regarding 119 (XDH119G) it was the last bus delivered new (1969) to the old Walsall Corporation bus undertaking and I travelled on it when it was new.

No. 116 still exists in operable condition and travelled on this earlier this month.
