LT/LCBS Bus Garages

Potters Bar Garage never operated RML`s so to catch one on the forecourt on 15 April 1983 made for an unusual picture opportunity. RML 903 was visiting from Finchley Garage for whatever reason.

 

Apart from RM`s on the 134`s, there are two other aspects here that would not last much longer. The nice gardens that were a unique feature of an LT garage would eventually be removed to create extra parking space as the bus allocation underwent a massive uplift to more than treble from how it was in the 1960`s and 1970`s when I lived nearby.

 

Also to go soon after this picture was taken were Arlington PSV Sales. Through my childhood and until I left the area, this was a feature of the far side of the garage. Coaches for sale were parked in the garage and a few outside at the side and rear of the site out of the way of bus movements. Were there any other LT garages that had a commercial business not connected to LT (excluding overnight Scottish coaches) sharing space?
