West Ham Bus Depot

[crozier]

Does anyone know where I might find records and pictures for West Ham Bus Depot, other than Newham Local Studies?
Known to our family as "The Shed", my Dad and Granddad were mechanics there 1920s to 1950s. Great Grandad was a Licenced Stage Driver, maybe also at West Ham.
I have a couple of pictures of WW2 bomb damage, but would like to find out more. The building is now demolished so I can't get the photos I want.
Do you think London Transport Museum might have information?

Hello Crozier,

The address below looks like a good starting point ...

Group Archives and Records Management
Transport for London
55 Broadway
London
SW1H OBD

You can send a request to access company archives by letter, fax or email.
They will indicate whether records containing the information are held.

Hi Crozier, it might be worth placing a posting on the above site, someone in the area will have a copy I bet
