| Details: AEC Swift bus SMS300 was withdrawn from Uxbridge Garage in January 1981 and sent to AEC Southall for storage. Later in the year it was moved to Aldenham, then in July 1982 to Norbiton Garage. Here it was used as a mobile classroom, although it is not thought to have moved much. It was photographed at the garage on 7th August 1982, alongside Ford Transit van 1892F. The latter was new to Parsons Green but transferred to Norbiton in September 1981. The van was withdrawn in September 1982 while the bus lasted until 1986. | ||

| Mick Overton | SMS300 was NOT a mobile classroom. It was fitted out with racks and shelves for secure storage of plumbing and electrical supplies and used by plumbers and electricians working on the Norbition garage extension/rebuild.A wooden board was bolted across the platform preventing entry to the saloon.The offside emergency exit was padlocked & used by plumbers and electricians to access materials | Wed 03/02/16, 00:21 |
