‘Scene’ at ‘First South Yorkshires’ (FSY) event in Sheffield on Dennis Basford’s railsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’

The 22nd. of August 2021 saw the 60th. anniversary of the opening of Olive Grove Garage in Sheffield.

 

To celebrate ‘FSY’ put on a ‘Family Fun Day’.

 

As might be expected, ‘FSY’ was well represented with buses from the present fleet with others either from the past or representing something from the past.

Another of ‘FSY’s heritage liveries and very good it looks.

 

Although wearing a heritage livery, the route branding on the side panelling is distinctly modern.

I have always been drawn to the service vehicles in a bus fleet. The breakdown wagons, the driver trainers and assorted maintenance vans etc.

 

New to ‘First Hants & Dorset’ as part of the revenue fleet.

 

Between there and here it had a spell at ‘First Manchester’.
