In this photograph from 1987, we see Coach company operator Harry Shaw proudly receiving the 15,000th Volvo B10 Chassis to join his ever-expanding fleet. Standing on the left side of the image, Mr. Shaw exudes a sense of accomplishment and excitement as he accepts the keys to this milestone vehicle. The momentous occasion takes place at the prestigious Coach and Bus exhibition held at NEC in Coventry. Joining Mr. Shaw in commemorating this significant event is Bill Russell, Volvo Bus GB Sales Manager, who can be seen handing over the keys with a smile on his face. The camaraderie between these two individuals highlights their shared passion for transportation and travel. This snapshot captures an era when coach companies were thriving businesses that played a vital role in facilitating journeys across Britain. It serves as a reminder of how transport operators like Harry Shaw contributed to connecting communities and enabling people's adventures during the 1980s.
