May 30 2004:
Tracco People

Guildford, Surrey

Today, Guildford held its ‘Running Day’, where a selection of old buses run on a selection of local routes. A sufficient number of local buses have been preserved and so that these routes can be faithfully recreated.

These people are all dressed up as staff of the old Aldershot and District company, nicknamed ‘Tracco’. They were probably staff members themselves a few years ago.

That cap badge and the IDs encased in leather bring back memories Ray. Did you know that Terry Thomas's brother was a conductor at Aldershot in the '50's? I recently bought a booklet: Glory Days: Aldershot & District published by Ian Allan. Am just oogling your photos, having found them by chance through looking for photos of the aviation museum in Belgrade which I visited some 15 years ago. Wonderful stuff, and a real inspiration for me to do more with my 300D. Thank you very much.
