Considerable numbers of locally-owned PSVs, belonging to operators large and small, could be found every weekday afternoon during the late 1970s at Yate, near Bristol. Yate is now thought of as a New Town, but in its older parts, along the Badminton road, there were two large factories, "Newman's" and "Parnell's". Newman Industries, I know, is gone. The site became a supermarket ...Sainsbury, I think. I am unsure whether Parnell's is still there. During the war the firm had made aircraft gun turrets. The associated airfield had been sold as building land and eventually became the "aerodrome estate". But by now Parnell's had placed its efforts firmly behind Britain's peacetime consumerist prosperity; the firm made Creda washing machines.
So, at knocking-off time on Thursday 27th April 1978, the buses and coaches gathered as usual in the gravelled car park at the front of the factory, shortly to disperse throughout the north Bristol suburbs and the villages and small towns of South Gloucestershire. Among them was this vehicle belonging to Durbin, Patchway, who traded as Western Roadways. It is of a rather uncommon type, the Seddon Pennine VI, with 57-seat Plaxton bodywork. Durbin's did not long survive the date of this photograph. It was whispered that they had been closed down because Ministry inspectors had been dissatisfied with maintenance arrangements. The business was acquired by another Bristol independent, R. C., O. I. & A. J. Turner, but all trace of the Western Roadways name and fleet soon disappeared.

Each of them also has a statue, which you can see above the row of numbers.
Me and friend at the Salmon Derby Festival. Still hurtin', still smilin'.
I admit that while this shot was taken on my camera , I didn't take it. (Gasp!) But I did crop it and posterize it, so technically it's still my work. (?) (partly?) And since I know what so many of my contacts look like, I figured it was time. Plus I finally got a recent shot of myself to post. Thanks, D.
PS....you just have to figure out which one would have purple toenail polish on. : > )
7 is Yahua's number of perfection. 3 is this:
Throughout history we see that God loves numbers! He’s an architect and engineer; He made the universe! He loves to show off, show His glory, and make us marvel! Many numbers have very significant, God ordained meanings & implications. Note: “3 dots, 3 dashes, 3 dots” is man’s international distress signal, SOS in Morse Code. I’m convinced God orchestrated this, not Mr. Morse! - 333 is surely God’s international distress signal; an urgent end-times SOS message! Think! WHAT IF!! What if GOD is really trying to get your attention! Even if you don't believe in God, WHAT IF!! I would hope, if it were me, I would somehow respond. But, CAUTION! Whatever you do, do not place your trust in the purveyors of ANGEL NUMBERS & such! Although it's essentially true that the 333 may indeed be delivered by an angel, it would be an extreme injustice & mistake to associate it with the various spiritualist and profit oriented sites that pop up when "meaning of 333" is Googled. See "Satan's # Games". Unfortunately, although certainly more accurate, it's a shame one has to add "biblical" to "meaning of 333" for this site to be ranked high on the list by Google. Don't know whether to blame Satan or praise Google! It represents God, the 3-in-1, Father, Son, & Holy Spirit. Jesus prayed 3 times in the Garden of Gethsemane before His arrest. He was placed on the cross at the 3rd hour of the day (9 a.m.) and died at the 9th hour (3 p.m.). There were 3 hours of darkness that covered the land while Jesus was on the cross. Three is also the number of resurrection. Christ arose after 3 days and 3 nights in the tomb.
There are many more illustrations of the #3s biblical significance. Jonah prophetically spent 3 days in the belly of a big fish. After the flood, new life started in 3 persons: Shem, Ham, & Jepheth. Israel was founded in the 3 persons of Abraham, Isaac, & Jacob. Three (3) of the most memorable Biblical edifices, Noah's Ark, Solomon's Temple, and The Millennial Temple, are 3 stories tall; and they all represent God's saving grace. 33 = After 3 years of ministry and raising 3 people from the dead, Jesus died at age 33. His death and resurrection fulfilled all the old testament promises concerning the Messiah. Thus, the number 33 is connected to promise, in particular, to Gods promise of salvation to humanity. “3 dots, 3 dashes, 3 dots”, as noted above, is man’s international distress signal, SOS in Morse Code. I’m convinced God orchestrated this, not Mr. Morse! - 333 is surely God’s international distress signal; an urgent end-times SOS (Save Our Souls) message! On Nov.29,1947, the 333rd day of the year, the United Nations voted for the establishment of a Jewish State. God gave His chosen people the homeland that He had promised to their forefathers!
Genesis 15:9, The LORD told Abraham, "Bring me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon." This has to do with the covenant God made with Abraham, promising the land of Israel to the Jews. Thus 333 just may be considered a COVENANT number!!! As seen above, the numbers 3, 33, or 333 just scream of Jesus &/or the Bible! No other, not Mohammad, Buddha, Satan, or any other religion can proclaim such a connection. And again, 333 is surely God’s International Distress Signal; an urgent end-times SOS message! good link below
Well, almost. This 1970 Bristol RELL6G (three years older than a similar bus I photographed last December) not only has matching registration and fleetnumbers but also a route prefix to match its registration suffix - indicating that it operated in the Merseyside area.
Chances are that it would also have had an MPTE logo at the other end of its fleetname! In 1985, though, its passenger-carrying days were over.
