Wallace Arnold (Devon) Ltd coaches at Rochdale in the 1960s

Summer 1966 (I think) – A line up of three Plaxton bodied coaches of Wallace Arnold Tours (Devon) Limited parked on a summer Saturday together with a Weymann bodied AEC Regent V of Rochdale Corporation Transport. The coaches had worked on the Yelloway Friday night northbound service from Torquay and would return on the Saturday night southbound service. The road along the front of the picture is Smith Street and Penn Street is alongside the RCT bus. This parking ground became part of the then new bus station in the 1970s which has itself been demolished and redeveloped.
