Gibson's of Moffat was a bus and coach operator in Dumfries & Galloway, Scotland. It is no longer in business. ==History== Gibson's of Moffat was formed by James and Elizabeth Gibson in 1919. It initially operated a service between Moffat and Dumfries.〔(Moffat Probus Club meeting ). Dumfries and Galloway Standard, 7 April 2010〕 The war saw heavy loading on buses on the Dumfries services, which served army camps on route. Moffat served as a training area for many nationalities throughout the Second World War. By 1946 the firm had six vehicles, employed five conductresses and four drivers. A new route between Whitehead and Dumfries railway station was introduced in 1986 following bus deregulation. This route later passed to McEwan's.〔 In 1993 a humanitarian trip was undertaken to war-torn Croatia and the 2,500 mile round trip lasted 10 days. Clothing and money donated by the people of south west Scotland were taken to give to the needy there. On 21 November 2007, Gibsons of Moffat ceased trading.〔Dumfries Courier - 15 April 1994〕〔Dumfries & Galloway Standard 8 April 1994〕〔Moffat News 22 November 2007〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gibson's of Moffat」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
