Southampton City Transport Buses
£11.70
“With a wealth of rare and previously unseen images, Southampton City Transport Buses illustrates the development of mainly diesel-powered buses operated by Southampton City Transport and its successors since the early years of the twentieth century until recent times. As well as covering the vehicle types used, the photographs included here attempt to show as much background around the buses as possible to give a fuller portrait of this interesting city and its history.
Written by a long-time member of the Southampton & District Transport Heritage Trust and making use of the group’s superb archive, the images presented here give the reader a wonderfully evocative insight into the history of transport in the city.”

When I saw this book for sale, I was in two minds about it. However, having after spending the afternoon in the garden reading it, I was pleased that I brought a copy.
by Stephen
A comprehensive and well-detailed account of the many buses that form so much of Southampton’s transport history. Reading through it’s clear the author is highly knowledgeable and has a genuine passion for the subject. Lots of good photos as well.

I got given this as a Father’s Day gift from my son and it’s brought back fond memories of when I travelled to work back in the 60s, 70s and 80s.

Gift for my Father who grew up in Southampton and is a fan of buses and trains. He really enjoyed this and it features some photo’s he’d not seen in other publications and memories came flooding back of when he was a lad
