Greetings from Leicester, Paradise of the Midlands!
A quick Hi! to everyone here from a born-again rail enthusiast.
My Dad used to work for Leicester City Transport at the Abbey Park Rd depot years before it was taken over by First. I believe the General Manager there (Mr Hilditch?) used to have a collection of vintage buses which he kept at the depot and allowed public visitors to see the old girls.

Thanks for the welcome, Ian!
I've done a bit of Googling and found this page which may be of interest to members here. Check out the link at the bottom of the page to 'Early Bus Memories' which would cover the period my Dad was there. http://www.rhaywood.karoo.net/personal/buses/buses.htm
