WNOC Torpoint Depot 240581
I understand that the former Western National depot at Torpoint is due to close today and here we have a view scanned from an old slide which I think I took around 1981, but I could be wrong. I know the LHs carried the early FERRYBUS boards/stickers with the Cornwall and Plymouth Coats of Arms. On the open parking area situated to the right of the depot, a couple of ECW bodied Bristol LHs 1607 (GDV 456N) and 1594 (NFJ 594M) are accompanied by a pair of Bristol FLFs 2090 (BOD 32C) and 2026 (406 PTA). By this date the FLFs were being used on school work. Today, this is almost certainly one of the last former Cornish WNOC depots still occupying the same location and the original building.
Thanks to my good friend who was with me at the time, I can now give an accurate date for this photo/slide.
