I know this is about buses, but I have put it on a train thread because its about railway companies running buses for their customers.
I know Midland Red buses was party railway owned and the GWR also ran buses rather than build railways to where traffic was sparse
How common was this? did LMS and LNER do it also?
I ask because of the Swallow and Amazons Great Aunt thread - a Kendal - Kirkby Lonsdale bus would have been a nice short cut for her Windermere - Harrogate journey.
