    Bowness & Montgomery bus service existed as early as 1963 (and probably earlier) then provided by route 25 Bowness. That lot was the loop for route 1 when it was a trolleybus. The 1 was dieselized in 1965 and extended east from Inglewood to Forest Lawn and west from Parkdale to Bowness sometime...
