A Moment of Respite: Bus Conductors and Drivers Enjoy a Tea Break in 1959 This charming photograph captures a group of bus conductors and drivers taking a well-deserved tea break at their depot or station in 1959. The scene exudes a sense of camaraderie and relaxation, as the men sit around a table, engaged in lively conversation, their expressions filled with amusement and enjoyment. The setting is reminiscent of a simpler time, with the buses and coaches parked in the background, their uniformed drivers and conductors dressed in peaked caps and smart uniforms. The advertisement for National Derv transport fuel, subtly visible in the background, adds an intriguing layer to the image. The fuel company's name is displayed prominently on a paper sign, suggesting that the men are taking a break during their workday, perhaps during a refueling stop. The use of the word "Derv" is a nod to the diesel fuel that was commonly used in buses during the 1950s. The photograph, taken by renowned advertising and studio photographer Colin Sherborne, is a testament to the human side of the transport industry during the 1950s. It offers a glimpse into the daily lives of bus conductors and drivers, showcasing their sense of community and the importance of taking a break to recharge before getting back to work.
