The many events held and publications produced to celebrate the
centenary of Southdown Motor Services in 2015 all went to emphasise
the high esteem in which the Company was, and still is held, not
only by enthusiasts but by those to whom the apple green and cream
buses were an integral part of everyday life. It is remembered
particularly for the exceptional quality and comfort of its
vehicles, its superb maintenance standards, its superior service
and its pride in the presentation of vehicles and staff alike. This
book attempts to illustrate, in words and pictures, the various
elements which went to create the Southdown style and to explain
why, almost fifty years after the 'true' Southdown was swallowed up
by the National Bus Company, it is still held in such high regard
by enthusiasts, former employees and the general public alike. In
the words of Brighton's own Max Miller, 'there will never be
another'.
