This ex-New York, Susquehanna and Western Railway SD70M has a new lease on life after being purchased by Norfolk Southern in 2014. NS bought all three of NYSW's SD70Ms which had been sitting in storage; after repairs and a new coat of paint they were released into service in 2015. Here NS 2797 hustles intermodal train 202 east on the Lurgan Branch.
Writing on slide frame said "Baker Brothers" and Jacksonville. There's an HVAC distributing company in Jacksonville named Baker Distributing that once went by the name Baker Brothers.
ExPLoReD! No 186 on 21st October 2012. Thanks everyone!!
Taken by me from the lovely comfy sofa, with Colin and our friends peeking out from amongst the shelves.
(And I'm sorry to disappoint all those people who've thought that it's Colin who's taking the photos, but it's almost always Louise who's the photographer on Flickr. You might see an occasional photo on here from Colin's mobile phone, but otherwise he has nothing to do with Flickr!!!)
These are the last of the photos from the lovely Barter Books, one of the country's largest second hand bookshops, in Alnwick, Northumberland, England.
Jolly Roger Coaches of York, were an independent operator who operated from a base on the old WW2 airfield at Full Sutton near Pocklington. The company ran a variety of secondhand buses and coaches, much of the company's work being school contract journeys operated on behalf of the local authority.
The buses owned and operated by the company had come from operators all over the UK, many being third hand.
The picture shows the open yard as it was on the 9th June 1997. The double decker (ANA234T) facing the camera was a Northern Counties bodied Leyland Atlantean that had originated with Greater Manchester Passenger Transport Executive in July 1979.
The smaller vehicle (D230TBW) with its back to us, was an Optare bodied Volkswagen LT55 mini coach. This vehicle had started life with South Midland near Oxford, and in this picture, was still wearing its original livery.
The owners Roger and Jim, were always very obliging on visits, and made visitors feel welcome. Unfortunately for the company, the men from the 'ministry' where not happy with the standards of maintenance, despite the company's best efforts. Eventually they lost their operator's licence and ceased trading c2000/2001.
Up until the late 1980s, the coach park at Battersea Wharf was used as the overflow parking area for coaches using the nearby Victoria Coach Station and as such would almost always be worth the walk over Chelsea Bridge.
Parked there in August 1984 was Maidstone & District Leyland Leopard / Duple Dominant II 2421 MNK421V. It carries Invictaway fleetnames for services from the Kent region.
This coach was one of a number of former Fox of Hayes coaches that were acquired by NBC companies in 1981/2. Maidstone & District took MNK421-3V, East Kent MNK424-6V, Alder Valley MNK427-30V, and Eastern National LLT342-7V.
Covent Garden, 1982; probably September 10. Writing on the slide says "Radio 1 Roadshow." The person who took this shot has a shot of the Thames they dated 9/12/82... Seems the BBC did its remote shows on Fridays, so this is likely the 10th.
Kate Bush was interviewed by Radio 1 here on 9/10/1982. According to this clip she was wearing a t-shirt saying "I'm a Prima donna" soundcloud.com/katebushnews/bbc-radio-1-roadshow-covent-g...
Having bade farewell to the Principality , we changed Buses in Lydney , Gloucestershire .

Stamped August, 1972. I know the boat says San Francisco, but that guy with the beard is wearing a t-shirt for a hotel in Bali (tough for you to make it out from this shot, but it's much clearer in other shots)... And the shirt on the guy at the front of the boat say Bali also. Possibly Hawaii...
