Fight like a Terrier


Bus Deregulation brought a number of our towns and cites almost to a standstill including Sheffield as existing operators added extra vehicles to counter those of it's formerly local friends and newcomers like Terrier. Like many this firm started up when redundant managers used their windfalls to run bus services in competition with their old employer South Yorkshire PTE. Terrier was certainly one of the better one's and ran a smart fleet of mostly elderly Leyland Nationals including this one which once operated with Midland Red. Eventually I think this operator sold out to Yorkshire Traction who continued to run it as a separate entity.
