AEC Regents in Service: The Late 1960s and 1970s

by David Christie (Author)

Synopsis

From 1967 to the late 1970s the author visited many towns and cities in Britain, photographing the remaining traditional buses in service. This book concentrates on one marque - the AEC Regent, which was to be found generally in its Mk 3 variant and more so in the southern counties. `Up North' was generally Leyland country, and a companion book covers the PD Leylands. Travelling from Romford in Essex ,the author's home town, and starting with a brief LT selection, we call in along the south coast before heading north to the Midlands ,the Isle of Man, then on to Scotland, where the Author relocated in 1973. All the photographs are in colour, originally in slide form, from which they have been digitally restored.

Author Bio
