As a mark of respect to those who lost their lives in two world wars and other conflicts, most of the buses operated by Reading Buses displayed a poppy on their front in the run-up to Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday.
As a thank you to armed forces personnel, Reading Buses also provided free travel to all those in full uniform, displaying their medals or having a veteran’s badge on show when travelling on the two special days.
The company has also said that it told bus drivers who wished to do so they could pull their buses over to observe the minutes’ silences on Armistice Day and Remembrance Sunday to honour those who have given their lives.
Reading Buses will also be contributing to the Royal British Legion charity appeal at the same time.
