Buses & Girls. Not just the photos but in song too

A published called Portico asked me if I had a suitable photo of Shrewsbury's old Barker Street Bus Station for a book they were publishing called 'The Girl and The Song' where they tell the story behind the lyrics. Ian Hunter of Mott the Hoople fame wrote in a love song about a girl who he was to meet here called 'Irene Wilde'.I chose this photo of what at the time was Shrewsbury's only D9 No.5028.
