Yelloway Motor Services

Yelloway Motor Services

Yelloway Motor Services Ltd, often shortened to just Yelloway, was a coach company that was based in Rochdale, Lancashire, England. It operated from 1932 to 1988, and only ever bought British manufactured coaches, predominantly the AEC Reliance. It was a very popular coach company in the North-West, running scheduled coach services to the South West, East Anglia, North Wales and the North West, particularly Blackpool and Fleetwood. The manager of the company was Hubert Allen. The main office, bus station and maintenance garage were situated on Weir Street, Rochdale, Lancashire.

There is now a Yelloway mobile Museum, housed in a former Yelloway coach, and owned by an enthusiast named David Haddock.
