Caked in dust across the interior and the entrance full of leaves.
Guessing it had been stored outdoors for a while.
A shame it was allowed to get in to that state and a shame it is off for scrap.
In the past, I've spoken about how these preservation groups are run by cliques. By hobbyist and fans of buses, who maybe have some sort of background in mechanics or paintwork.
They're not business minded. They're not commercially savvy.
It could be said they shouldn't need to be. But in the modern world, being reliant on the odd donation and whatever cash is left in the kitty - isn't going to get anyone very far.
Whilst I'm not accusing THV of being any of those things or anything else, looking at things from the outside in, there's clearly a need to improve the way they operate.
How can they improve. There shed was full of 30 vehicles and most wasn't even theres. Idk what improvement they could have given
