Helpful Drivers - They Do Have a Heart!

A lovely elderly lady train commuter was struggling to get on the train at Mount Druitt train this morning so as I almost always do, I lifted her shoulder so that she was able to get on the train.

As I later discovered she worked on the London buses during the 2nd World war collecting fares and found that people would blame her for late buses not the bus driver.

Her heartfelt true story was that one day she had blood pouring from her lower leg and when she was getting off the bus - the bus driver on Carlisle Avenue asked her where she lived and he told her to get back on the bus he will drop her directly opposite her house - not where a bus stop was. He did this and she was so relieved going home she hadn't had this type of generosity kind service before. Deep down inside bus drivers have hearts like us - keep up the good work bus drivers as this lady was 85 years of age. And she had a great story to tell!
