As reported in CBW last week, Victoria Coach Station (VCS) marked its 85th anniversary with displays of vehicles that had either served or represented types that had served the facility.
Four departure bays were allocated for the occasion with 11 historic and two modern coaches booked to appear each day. Details of 38 historic vehicles organised by the Thames Valley & Great Western Omnibus Trust from which those appearing would be drawn were included in a special event programme published by Transport for London which manages the site. The first day, a Friday, was actually the exact anniversary date. Around 13.4m passengers now use VCS annually.
