Hi Less you did well to find them photos,i started work at Crows at 17 working in the garage
then driving there for 10 years.Brother Jack worked there from an early age,they had some
horses when he started they used them for weddings alongside some taxis.When i was there
there’d have been about 20 motors, Thames traders and AEC.I have seen them photos before
the picture of the Leyland with old man Crow was on the office wall. Brother Jack had allot
of pictures in a album he lent them to somebody just before he past away and have never seen
them again.I loved it at crows worked with Keith Bell never a dull moment.
Cheers Dave.

Hi Dave, I knew you worked at crows, didn’t realise they had been going so long, I remember Keith and a few more drivers from my Edwards Bell days,
tried to tweak the photos a bit with no success. Les.

Lovely motor that old Foden, used to come in our yard at Wakefield (Rawsons) pretty often. Not the youngest of motors, but always well looked after and very nicely turned out. Did it survive into preservation or further use on the fairgrounds?
Here it is in preservation. Les.

If the driver was a tall bald bloke it would have been Joe Greenhough who kept his motor immaculate inside and out

City road was some haulage yard, a lot of coming and going of companies we went in as Edwards-Bell, taken over by Nuttalls then Renwicks,
G C Morley, John E Ball, which became Morley-Ball then Nuttalls then Renwicks, lots of other hauliers came and went Reef-Bell, J Moran and probably lots i cant remember, brain fade or beer fade, if i’m wrong someone put me right. Les.
