Contents:
For road passenger enthusiasts, there is one fixed point in the calendar, the publication at the end of August of Buses Yearbook. With its eclectic collection of articles and photo-features covering a wide range of contemporary and historic road transport subjects, year in year out, this is one of the most successful and popular books on the subject. As with previous years the publication has been fully illustrated throughout, with both colour and mono and has been edited by one of Britain's most respected commentators on the subject, Stewart Brown. With articles including Alan Millar's examination of open-top buses- a vehicle that has been traditionally associated with the seaside but has shown increased popularity at tourist destinations. Stephen Morris's account of the apparent inexorable rise of Telling-Golden Miller on ex-London Transport services in Surrey and Gavin Booth's forecast of the contemporary bus design that, to future generations, will be regarded as a latter-day classic. Amongst the photo-features is Geoff Mill's portrait of classic buses in East Anglia and Roy Marshall's recollections of British trolleybuses.
