I meant to put this picture in with those which I took and posted of CYA 181J a couple of days ago. 'Berresfordsmotors' pointed out to me the fact that it had expired! ... Amazing that it still survives in situ though after all these years.

I had lots of left over brown legs because of some changes to a previous minifig faction, so I got more brown torsos. I used the Brickarms XM7s and AC8s for their weaponry.

After receiving their gear, the new operators wasted no time heading to the range, eager to familiarize themselves with their equipment and sharpen their skills. They began by working on the fundamentals of shooting, ensuring their stance, grip, and trigger discipline were flawless before advancing to more complex drills.

 

For Tier One operators, mastering the art of precision shooting is a relentless pursuit. It’s not uncommon for them to spend countless hours on the range—from the first light of dawn to the last rays of dusk—focusing intensely on perfecting a single shot. This level of dedication is what separates them from others, as every detail matters when the stakes are high.

 

After each drill, the more experienced operators were always nearby, ready to step in with advice or demonstrate advanced techniques. Their insights and hands-on guidance helped the newcomers quickly identify areas for improvement and push their abilities to the next level.

I don't know if I have the time to figure out if a vest with one sleeve is a vest or a jacket. I'm going with vest — that way it has something extra instead of a lack of something. So, this is a vest. It has one loooooong arm hole and one full, blocky kimono-ish sleeve. It's sculpted and asymmetric and odd, with a deep "blackhole" pocket inset into the longer hip.

Yelloway Motor Services Ltd of Rochdale was once one of the United Kingdom's premier coach operators. Its orange-and-yellow coaches were never less than immaculate, and to hire a Yelloway coach for a day out was to hire the Very Best.

 

But apart from excursions and private hire, Yelloway had an extensive network of scheduled express services; both within its home north west region and to elsewhere, notably the South West; East Anglia; and London, as this publicity poster shows. Yelloway coaches had specious layouts and the company bought reclining seats long before their competitors did. So the coach depicted in the poster, a Harrington-bodied AEC, would have provided excellent comfort as it sped along the M1 (or trundled down the A5 or A6) to the capital city.

 

Eventually, Yelloway relinquished its share of the London services in return for more of a share of the shorter services to the Lancashire coast and eventually concentrated mainly on private hire. But darker days were to come: the company's long-time head Hubert Allen retired after fifty years of keeping Yelloway at the top of the tree of premier coach operators, and the company was sold as a going concern just around the time of deregulation in the 1980s.

 

The new owners quickly ran Yelloway into the ground. They replaced the coach fleet with Neoplan double deckers, which the company's older clientele didn't like because they had to climb steep stairs; and they re-entered the stage carriage bus market, competing aggressively after deregulation with a motley collection of scruffy second-hand buses. It didn't last long, the Ministry's vehicle examiners took an interest in the plunging standards of the fleet and the by the end of the decade company was gone. Its new owners should, but probably didn't, hang their heads in shame.

 

Fortunately there are still reminders of this heyday of this proud company. There are several immaculate Yelloway coaches preserved, including two at the Museum of Transport Greater Manchester; and publicity such as this wonderful 1960s poster. Incidentally you can buy a reproduction of this poster, and several others, at our online shop www.motgmshop.uk/posters
