Prototype Notes

These shelters were provided in remote country districts served by the GWR Road Motor Services on bus routes serving as rail feeders or where a road service was cheaper and more practical than a railway. 

When the Great Western Railway (Road Transport) Act was passed in 1928 the GWR had the largest railway bus fleet. This Act regularised the railway's operation of road services and also paved the way for them to be transferred out of the railway's control to bus companies, although the railway was to be a shareholder in these companies and there would still be an effort to co-ordinate to road and rail services.
