“My researches into the local bus and coach operators of the ‘Thames Valley’ area started in 1969, after the usual apprenticeship as a bus-spotter. It all really began because I was curious about the past, but there were no such company histories to read for this area so I had to write them myself!” Paul Lacey.

A SELECTION OF WINDSOR
INDEPENDENTS £20 Now in stock
The historic town of Windsor had a long and
colourful road transport history, but the ranks of its
operators were thinned by the Road Traffic Act 1930
and the London Transport Act 1933, though still with
some notable independents of long duration.
After 50 years of research, this book tells the story of
the iconic trio that were Blue Bus, Borough Bus and
Imperial, as well as some other relevant operators,
through an extensive array of pictures, recollections
and other items, including many rare photos and
much of local and social history interest.
Within its 112 A4 perfect bound pages are 248
monochrome photos and 100 in full colour, along
with location maps and fleet lists. 9780956783288
