Two question quiz

[busaholic]

Thank you to all those who took part in the 'One question quiz'. Thus encouraged, I've doubled the number of questions, and will respond on here when one or other have been answered correctly: it'd be great if someone got both right, of course!

The questions are about bus garages this time, although neither garage still functions, and, for avoidance of doubt, relate to red bus operation.

1) Which garage was the first to adopt 100% opo operation?

2) Which garage was the first to operate the AEC Regent ST type, and also the first RT chassis which was fitted with an old Dodson body and numbered ST1140?

Good luck!

Absolutely right, and thanks for taking the trouble. I hope it wasn't TOO difficult to find the answer to the questions. The second part of question 2 was a piece of info I've only just become aware of myself, so through it in, as it were. HW's proximity to AEC works can't have been a coincidence. I'm not sure of the exact date that HW officially changed its name from Hanwell Bus Garage, to help differentiate it from Hanwell Depot, code HL.
