The once great and famous independent coach operator of Yelloway Motor Services of Rochdale, an undertaking that survived attempts at acquisition and nationalisation only then to spectacularly collapse upon the deregulation of the UK's bus and coach operations. This is their 1968 timetable for the lucrative Lancashire to London services that Yelloway had a stake in and it was this, along with their Blackpool and West Country services that gave them access to some profitabel routes.
These services, connecting the then mill towns of South East Lancashire through Manchester and Derbyshire, were unusually not joint services although much is made of connections with George Ewer's "Grey Green" services out of the Kings Cross Coach Station in London that both companies used; Victoria Coach Station was, at the time, 'out of bounds' to Yelloway.
The graphics are a strange mix of typefaces and the banner is still the old "YellowaY" sunburst that was an important part of the Yelloway 'look'. It was printed by local printer's Edwards & Bryning of Rochdale.
An incomplete collection of schedules, ranging from April 2003 through October 2008. Note the change in the Capitol Corridor logo.
Managed to grab a couple maps and schedules plus a few transfers while visiting the different systems in Wisconsin.

Anything Goes – Random items. - This month’s random item is – a Timetable! Can you find one anywhere?
this is an insert photo of a timetable that I keep clipped on a board while I was living in Darwin last summer. I have chosen an image of the Darwin waterfront to back my timetable.
The new 5A Timetable at the Royal Surrey Hospital. They really need to replace it with a more informative one as you can't tell the difference between buses going to park barn or the town centre. As you can see it says the Royal Surrey is 12 Mins!
This is the only timetable we have ever seen of the 480 service and also the only professorially printed timetable in the early years of Brutonian. My thanks to Clive Cheeseman for use of this timetable.
National Express ran these services. Believe they were originally Wales & Borders, became part of First Great Western
Interior of the 1958 Northshore timetable. During rush hours the Northshore ran four trains from downtown Chicago up north, two to Mundelein, one to Waukegan and one all the way to Milwaukee. Amtrak doesn't do much better these days...
Bought on Ebay for $9,00. The timetable is a fouldout flyer, almost 3 feet long.
Just as an aside from the normal pictures I've recently posted of buses in the Portsmouth area, here's the timetable for the 1978 season's Portsmouth - Hayling Ferry Open Top service.
Mrs 'R' has recently engaged in a degree of 'tidying' and adopting a more 'minimalist' approach to the living room. Naturally this has resulted in a substantial amount of my 'junk' being ejected, this by coincidence was in one of the boxes.
It can be seen from the timetable that the service (which no longer operates a such) was a busy affair operating long into the evening. Portsmouth City Transport were the providers, in this era with MCW bodied Leyland Atlanteans.
