History
First Glasgow was created through FirstGroup's buyout of the former Strathclyde Buses (created from the former Greater Glasgow Passenger Transport Executive bus fleet, formerly the municipal Glasgow Corporation Transport), which had itself recently bought out the former Kelvin Central Buses (an amalgamation of Kelvin Scottish and Central Scottish, owned by the state-owned Scottish Bus Group).
First Glasgow has two operator's licences:-
First Glasgow No 1 Limited. Company registered in Scotland No. SC097299. - the former Strathclyde Buses licence.
First Glasgow No 2 Limited. Company registered in Scotland No. SC127012. - the former Kelvin Central Buses licence.
