Wetmore Road for those who don’t know is where the fleet of ‘Midland Classic of Burton’ (MC) is garaged.
Over the weekend of 28/29th August 2021 ‘MC’ held a Heritage Weekend to celebrate two anniversaries.
On the Saturday to celebrate 15 years of ‘MC’ operating in Burton.
On the Sunday to celebrate the 95th. anniversary of John Stevenson setting up in business to run buses between Burton and Uttoxeter via Tutbury.
A route that ‘MC’ still operates today.
I still remember a visit to Spath where ‘Stevensons’ depot at the time was.
If memory serves me right the company appeared under the name of ‘Stevensons of Spath’ in the listings in ‘Buses Illustrated’ as it was at the time.
