Ex Liverpool Thorneycroft and Bedford WLB at Hollis' depot. Aug'70.

            Parked inside Hollis' depot at Queensferry on 2/8/70 were these incredible machines. A three-axle Thorneycroft no less- KF1040 is an Ex Liverpool 1931 with clerestory roof body by Liverpool CT. The only recent info. I have been able to find is that the chassis is preserved in Merseyside County Museum but that the body is not fitted ...? 
The wrapped up 1932 Bedford WLB/Duple (GV1173) was run on the Trans-Pennine Run a week later (I photographed same) but has now ended up with someone in Bucks and doesnt run these days.
