Back in 1985 the first 'British Railways Past and Present' was
published, it has only taken 25 years for us to start the same
treatment for Britain's road transport scene. There is perhaps no
better place to start than in the Capital City. London's buses are
well known throughout the world, being synonymous with the city.
This volume takes us on a nostalgic tour of not just street scenes
but also caomparative shots of the various bus related sites of the
city. Bus stations and interchange points and garages and depots
are slectively covered. The changes in the buses themselves and the
advent in recent years of the return of the long lost street
tramway make for fascinating reminders of both the past and the
progress! This though is not just about the public service vehicles
it is also about the cars, trucks, bikes and other motor vehicles
that can be seen in the background. The fashions have also changed
over the years while the buildings are remarkable either because
they still stand or indeed because of what has replaced them after
they have been swept aside in the passage of time.
