I thought it may look good colourised. I did it via a free online program on the internet. It only took 15 minutes to complete and I think its turned out quite well.

Well done; really brought it to life!

Sorry I disagree, it's much better in B/W, than colour, it represents that era so well. But well done Bill.

Thank you for all your comments.
I missed a few bits! Upper deck of bus windows are still B&W, and there are other little bits.
Its really quite therapeutic colourising photos, but I don't fancy doing 26,000 plus, Ron!
Here's the link for the colourising website.

Thanks for the information Bill, I will definitely try it.

I know just what you mean, Garry. Some photos are better in b&w. My son had some of his wedding photos in b&w and others in colour. Also, some films are better I b&w, eg: Brief Encounter, The Elephant Man and Scrooge, (which I have got in colour and don't like it), but I have to admit I like both versions of the bus photo.
