West Bromwich Corporation Transport - bus map cover, c1965
"Over half a century of public service" was the proud boast of West Bromwich Corporation Transport Department - and one of their many Daimler buses can been seen here on one of the few 'scenic' parts of the borough's main street. The department would soon succumb to WMPTE - and you could debate if bus services are now seen as a public service the way the old borough's saw it. That coat-of-arms or armorial device brings back some memories - it was on the side of the handsome buses and above the stage of my junior school - how many mornings did I sing 'Jerusalem' whilst reading "Labor Omnia Vincit"!
