|
| A frequent service
operated between the bus museum and
the Isle of Wight Steam Railway at Haven
Street station. |
|
| There was also a
service between the museum and the bus
station. |
|
| Additional excursions
were provided and I took the opportunity
to take a ride to Seaview and back on
GDL 764. This 1950 Leyland Titan of
Seaview Services is one of my childhood
memories of Ryde. This was my first
chance to enjoy this bus. The current
owner was on board to explain the history
of the bus, the company and the route. |
