Old Footage Of Passenger Buses In Falkirk Scotland

Tour Scotland short 4K travel video, with Scottish music, of old footage of passenger buses in Falkirk, Britain, United Kingdom. Falkirk's bus history is strongly linked to W. Alexander & Sons, a company that started with a single bus in 1919 and grew to become a major operator. Falkirk's bus station, opened in the 1930s, was closed in 2018. After World War I, in 1919, Walter Alexander acquired his first bus, a luxurious vehicle for its time with glass windows and cushioned seats, though still solid tyres, operating between Falkirk and Kilsyth. Walter Alexander eventually manufactured his own buses and even employed a conductress.
