Ray | I agree with Damon but only one is in use with Arriva. (The same applies to a number of sites eg Grays with two using GY and one using GA). NF was to transfer to Arriva Medway Towns 1/2012 but this was deferred Note: Edited by Ray, 19/01/12, 17:08. | Sat 07/07/2007, 16:23 |
Damon | Actually two different sites, both of which are still intact. The current NF dates from 1937. The previous NF in Dover Road was the depot of the Gravesend and Northfleet Electric Tramways Limited and dates to 1902. Closed to trams in 1929 and used for motor buses by Maidstome and District it passed to the LPTB on formation in 1933. | Sat 07/07/2007, 15:38 |
Ray | Sited on London Road (Gravesend 66267) my first visit in 1960 caused me much trouble as I thought I'd gone back in time. RT64 (not in my ABC) Q69 (never heard of one) and a Tree Lopper STL (never seen an STL let alone a tree lopper). Still my friendly GS driver did let me start the engine - it's not a coat hook! - and chased after a 480 for me to catch and head home. | Sat 07/07/2007, 13:22 |
