Heritage Edinburgh's Preserved Buses

This book profiles each of the 35 preserved buses from the fleet of Edinburgh Corporation Transport and its successors Lothian Region Transport and Lothian Buses. Starting with the oldest, single deck Guy Arab fleet number 739 from 1948 and finishing with Dennis Trident fleet number 572 new in 2000, nearly every bus is treated to its own double page spread which includes a half page providing a summary of its history and path to preservation. Each vehicle is illustrated and for most this also includes a view of the bus when in service on Edinburgh's bus routes. The book includes a fleetlist of all 35 buses, giving body, chassis and seating details along with year new, fleet number and registration number. Further photographic sections show the buses at rallies, on special running days etc and a double-page spread of night time shots. This is a book which will appeal to both enthusiasts and anyone with a nostalgic interest in Edinburgh and its transport.
