MACBRAYNE'S NORTHERN AREA TIMETABLE 1955

This is the third in the series of three bus timetable booklets published by Macbrayne's in the post-war years (Southern, Northern and Islands Areas).  The Southern printed on pink paper, the Northern on yellow paper and the Islands on blue paper.  In this Northern timetable were given the details for services from Fort William, Inverness, Ballachulish, Mallaig, Kinlochleven and Acharacle.

Two of the services in this timetable date from the very early days of Macbrayne's bus operations.  The Inverness - Glenurquhart route dates from 1911 and the Inverness - Fort William route from 1912.  The latter route was jointly operated with Macrae & Dick until 1952, when they were taken over by the then newly formed Highland Omnibuses, who thus acquired their share of the route workings.  The Fort William - Kinlochleven - Tyndrum route of J H Shields of Kinlochleven had been acquired in 1934 and the route extended south to Glasgow.   Routes in the Acharacle area were taken over in 1951 from Ardgour & Acharacle Motor Services Ltd.

By scrolling down through the webpage illustrations of all of the pages of this timetable booklet will be found, covering the times and fares for all of these routes.  You may need to allow enough time for all the pictures to load.
