Having closed in autumn 2018, Garston Garage was finally demolished in the first months of 2022. In its final week of use (on 25th August 2018), a 'Garston Garage Farewell' event was held, and this photo shows AEC Regent tree lopper 971J outside the 'exit' side of the main shed, with the admin and engineering block visible on the left. Note that the vehicle has one of its upper-deck working platforms open. New as bus STL1470, 971J was converted to its new role in 1953 and served for 10 years. It was based mainly at Hemel Hempstead and St Albans so was likely to have been seen at Garston from time to time. |
