I also remember the bus station. I worked on the Ribble around 1967 and It was terrible trying to reverse off the stands downstairs. Especialy when another bus was comeing in.I also remember the canteen upstairs(that shutter was dangerouse too). Does any one remember a mini car getting "crushed" with a National Express coach, when it was parked on the far wall.?
I was with Bill (Jock) McRae and he was a driver in Aintree. Saddley he has passed away a few years ago.
I am now involved with THE RIBBLE VEHICLE PRESEVATION TRUST in FRECKLETON and am enjoying driveing and keeping these old vehicles back on the road.
