Pictured are: ??, ??, Eric Jackson, Joan Soloman, Irene ? ‘Flossy’, Doreen Wesson, Jenny Campbell, Ken Meehan (Depot Manager).

The person to the right of Eric Jackson is Joan Soloman, the girl on the bus steps is Irene ? know more to many as “Flossy” & the person between Dot & the Depot manager is Jenny Campbell; by the way the service became 279 – as indicated on the Layland national Bus in the picture (Loftus to the Redcar Lakes estate).
