Yelloway and joint operators Glasgow-Paignton timetable leaflet (Front and back pages) - Summer 1974

Originally passengers heading for the south west of England from Scotland could either travel to Liverpool and then take the Ribble coach services south or to travel to Manchester to take the Yelloway 'Devonian' service. (The Glasgow-Liverpool/Manchester services were jointly operated by Ribble and Western SMT). Ribble became a National Bus Company subsidiary and with the creation of National Travel their express services were then branded under the National name. This leaflet shows the direct service established in the early 1970s linking Glasgow with Cheltenham and Torbay. Gradually the service was expanded with regular day services established. Yelloway vehicles partcipated in the operation which saw their coaches regularly venturing north of the border on service work although the company's excursions and tours had done so for many years.
