Hamiltons (Long Distance) Transport

Bob Rust from England has emailed me with the following query....Can anyone help?

I worked for the London end of Hamilton's (Long Distance) Transport of Cambuslang. Desperately trying to recall the address of its yard and warehouse to tell a friend from Glasgow.
All I remember is a big red brick building behind what could be a bombed site on the right coming from Hamilton. The old governor Willie Hamilton was supposed to be well known in the area.

Thanks in advance

Bob Rust

Re: Hamiltons (Long Distance) Transport

Hamilton's Transport was in Sommerville Street next to the hoover in Cambuslang

My dad Pete McKenna worked there and so did Eddie O'Farrell and John O'Farrell.

Your location Cambuslang

There are 5 different ways to get from Cambuslang to Hamilton via train, transport, taxi, vehicle or towncar.
