Southport AEC Regent III bus

An old amateur photograph (just 2" x 2") of Southport Corporation Transport (SCT) bus fleet No. 114 (registration GFY414) showing '12 - Ainsdale Stn - Waterloo Rd' destination blinds. This photo is one of a number of amateur tram/bus photos from different areas of the UK in a persons (name unknown) original 1950s photo album, this photo was taken by the album owner.

GFY414 comprised a AEC Regent III chassis No. 9612E4627 and a Crossley body seating 56 (H30/26R). It was one of three new to SCT in Dec 1949, all three were withdrawn from passenger service in 1962.

🚃 Thank to 'chilterntrev' for the comment/location:-
"Location is Southport, junction of Waterloo Road and Selworthy Road. The white detached house is on the west and south side of the junction - check on Google streetview. The bus is heading south west along Waterloo Road towards Ainsdale and will pass the round house in the next 800 yards or so." 🚃

If there are any errors in the above description please let me know. Thanks.

📷 Any photograph I post on Flickr is an original in my possession, nothing is ever copied/downloaded from another location. 📷
