Graham's Bus Service garage, Hawkhead, Paisley ? 1970

Image: © Alan Murray-Rust Taken: 18 Sep 1970

Submitted to show the former Geigy, later BASF, chemical works to which the garage was adjacent. The area is currently (2021) being redeveloped as housing. Graham's buses were an independent operator providing a number of local bus services in the Paisley area, and for many years standardised on Guy buses, both new and second hand. No.84, a Guy Arab IV with Northern Counties bodywork, was new to Western SMT in 1955 and joined the Graham's fleet around 1969. This is one of a series of views featuring buses in the 60s, 70s, and 80s. http://www.geograph.org.uk/search.php?i=137652761
