Hello Coastal .. Victoria Coach Station
VP410
The telephone greeting used by staff at Britain's largest Coach Station is the apt title to this thoroughly researched book on the history of Victoria Coach Station by Richard Paramor, a former employee. The variety of operators using the coach station is well illustrated, while the ability of the premises to withstand both air raids and national rail strikes is fully covered. The eye-catching specially-commissioned watercolour showing the colourful scene as the guards march past on the way to Buckingham Palace gives a strong hint as to the delights of what the book contains in its attractive layout and sympathetic treatment of the subject. A lavishly produced, 176 page A4 coffee table production with almost 300 illustrations, many in full colour, published to mark the 75th anniversary of London's Victoria Coach Station.
