Unlike other parts of the world, Britain was slow to start
operating bendy buses and, despite the first ones appearing in
service in Sheffield in 1978, it was not until 1985 that the next
examples made their appearance, again in Sheffield. Somewhat
surprisingly it took a further thirteen years before bendy buses
gained wider acceptance in the UK and began to appear in other
towns and cities, with the largest number being operated in London
from 2002. Never reaching their potential, however, their number
failed to grow to any extent and only 858 were ever placed in
service, with their mass withdrawal commencing as early as 2009.
Profusely illustrated in colour, this book takes a detailed look at
the bendy buses operated in the UK and their lives since their
disposal by major operators.
