My grandfather trained as an apprentice mechanic on these Tilling-Stevens buses when Glasgow Corporation Transport department first ventured into buses from trams.
Hi. Thanks for the comment. Not a question I expected. I've looked at some of my images, and there are no discernable markings. There were a number of British tyre manufacturers in the days of hard rubber. The suspension was harsher than modern buses, but not as bad as I expected.
@@WritewheelUK Thank you for your reply. Sorry for deviating from the topic. About 10 years before this bus, Japan's first truck with a domestically produced steam engine was created. The engine was reasonably good, but there is a story that the tires were bad and ended in a big failure. When I see a solid tire, I am very worried.

Is this solid tire made by Dunlop?
