The workshop, run by Gotobed & Son, Coach Painters & Art Decorators, is bustling with activity. Workers can be seen meticulously applying fresh coats of paint to the intricately designed surfaces of the coaches, their faces focused and determined. The vibrant colors and bold patterns, which once adorned these vehicles, are being carefully restored, adding a touch of elegance and charm to each one. The atmosphere in the workshop is filled with a sense of pride and dedication. The artisans, clad in their work uniforms, are engrossed in their tasks, their deft hands moving with practiced ease.
