Duncan MacLennan of Shieldaig EJS 506D - May 1967

Monday 29 May 1967 - Unfortunately I had a problem with my film and so the only photographs I took of this bus suffered from light damage. Duncan MacLennan (Senior) operated the bus service from Shieldaig to Strathcarron and held the Royal Mail contract to carry mails on the route for many years. When he retired in 1963 his son Duncan (Junior) continued the role. In 1966 Ford Transit mini-bus EJS 506D was acquired and it is seen here on the platform of Strathcarron railway station as Duncan (junior) loaded goods and mail for the return journey to Shieldaig.
