| 摘要： | Derek Thompson, a prominent figure in bus preservation and the organisation of classic vehicle events in north-east England, died on 31 October. He worked for many years for the Chronicle newspaper in Newcastle, organising events for readers and colleagues and became involved in the preservation movement after suffering life changing injuries in a serious road accident around 30 years ago. Together with Chris Lediard and Eric Gilmore, he rescued and organised the restoration of former Haslingden Corporation 2 [KTJ 502), a 1949 Burlingham-bodied Leyland Tiger PSl/1 that had ended up carrying berry pickers to a farm in Scotland. It has since had a succession of owners but remains active and is now resident in North Yorkshire. |
