Trent Leylands at Derby Bus Station

Derby as well as being home to the hus company Trent, the town as it was then was famed for it's architecturally iconic art-deco influenced bus station dating from the early Twenties. Of course despite this it has recently been demolished in the name of progress! The bus operator's didn't like it much though as being a curved shape it was not suitable for modern large buses. However these three Leylands looked happy enough in this Sixties view.

  1. Great pic looking towards former buildings on Cattle Market. We run 'The Free' a free mag on Derby with emphasis on history. Would you mind if we used it in a future edition, full accreditation assured?
