This book takes a look at the most popular type of bus - the
open-top bus. Although most often associated with the seaside and
summer holidays, they often turn up further inland, on tourist
services around towns - London being the obvious example. Open-top
buses come in all shapes and forms, from purpose-built open-toppers
or convertible open-toppers to vehicles that have had accidents
involving their top decks. They could be a single bus, or a fleet
of them. Duties could be varied - open-tops naturally being in
demand during the summer months, while being put aside during
winter. Being open-topped often prolonged the vehicle's life, many
lasting longer open-topped than roofed. Covering the period from
the 1980s into the twenty-first century, Vernon Smith looks at
buses across different parts of England, with both fleet operators
and single-vehicle operators covered.
