| 摘要： | This is the unusual story of how a Stockport grammar school came to run its own buses. Graham Kellock, who qualified as a teacher in 1966, was interested in transport from an early age. His first post was at a school in Altrincham where he passed his PSV test in order to drive that establishment's Commer minibus and subsequently a Bedford SB. He also worked as a weekend coach driver for Godfrey Abbott of Sale. He joined Hulme Hall School in 1969. It used private operators then for its home-to-school transport, and he sought approval to gain a road service licence to operate the Altrincham route in his own name. He purchased now preserved ex-South Wales Transport AEC Reliance/Weymann Fanfare touring coach NCY 626 from dealer North's of Sherburn-in-Elmet. A second route followed in 1971 as another teacher had gained a PSV licence. By 1973, six teachers drove for what had become the Hulme Hall Educational Trust. Reliances remained the favoured type, with examples from Lancashire United and City of Oxford. |
