In 1986, Strathclyde Passenger Transport Executive was renamed Strathclyde Buses and its fleet of around 800 buses transferred as part of the deregulation of bus services in Scotland. The distinctive orange and black buses had been a familiar sight in Glasgow and the surrounding towns since 1983. The company had four depots at Larkfield, Possilpark, Parkhead and Knightswood. In 1992, some sixty buses were destroyed in a blaze at Larkfield depot and were replaced by a mixture of new and second-hand buses. In 1993, Strathclyde Buses was privatised and the company soon took over the ex-Scottish Bus Group company Kelvin Central Buses. By 1994, Stagecoach, which had expanded exponentially since deregulation, took a 21 per cent shareholding. Referral to the Monopolies & Mergers Commission led to a decision that the shareholding must be sold, but the company, its 1,300 buses and 2,000 staff, was sold to First Group in 1996. David Devoy, a Glasgow bus driver, tells the story of Strathclyde Buses, with many images of the company, its buses and its routes, especially the Leyland Atlantean and Volvo Ailsa B55s, which were the mainstay of the fleet for many years.
