London Transport's Country Buses provided services in the outer
London area and part of the Home Counties extending to an
approximate 25 mile radius from central London. Upon its formation
in 1933 the London Passenger Transport Board faced the task of
acquiring many independent operators in the Country area,
restructuring the route network and dealing with the great variety
of vehicle types. In the following years London Transport designed
a range of new buses for these services and built a number of
well-equipped garages. The Second World War saw a vast expansion of
services with many new routes serving the needs of war workers.
After the war a start was made in replacing the war weary fleet,
and a number of new routes in rural areas were established. This
first volume of the book tells the story from the origins of the
Country area in the early 1920s until the end of 1949.
