Many know my more recent genre Buses and Girls photography as those earlier buses I really like have all gone so now I enjoy my bus hobby more for the photography. As well as being an artist I owned a small transport business before I retired but today I have a little job too driving a minibus dong a school run to Wolverhampton in the afternoon and occasionally other jobs. It gets me out and about and satisfies my childhood ambition to drive a bus.

Outside Porto Station: A constant stream of passing buses
I expect this AEC belongs to Moreira Gomes & Costas, from Avintes, Vila Nova de Gaia whose buses seemed most numerous amongst the many Independents as they queued up ready to pick up home goers during the Porto, or if you are English the Oporto Rush Hour back in 1984.
Hello Christopher !
ReplyDeleteIt's not Lisbon rush hour but Oporto rush hour instead. ;-)
Best regards.
Sorry a slip of the tongue as I meant to put Porto.
ReplyDeleteYes, this AEC belongs to Moreira Gomes & Costas, from Avintes, Vila Nova de Gaia, at present the name of company is MGC Transportes.
ReplyDeleteThe place is street Rua Loureiro, Porto, where formerly the terminal of the bus was, beside the station of trains of Estação de São Bento. At present the terminal is in the park of the Camellias.
