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.

Chesterfield No.195
As Chesterfield had a very mixed fleet of both highbridge and lowbridge double-deckers one is left wondering how they avoided the almost inevitable de-roofing accident. Even though they did not carry an H or L prefix to the fleet numbers they were as you might expect kept apart. Front-engined highbridge buses were numbered from 200 and rear-engined vehicles 300. So as you would expect 1955 Weymann Daimler CVG6 No.195 was by conductors one of the much hated lowbridge buses which caused them many headaches both mental and physical.
