Many thanks for visiting, this site was launched in July 07 and had taken 6300 hits by Jan 08, by Dec 08 it had taken over 54500 hits.
Mostly a mixed selection of vehicles mostly operated in Bedfordshire or nearby from the two major operators and others. Have dipped into some other areas for classic shots that add more interest as well. Featuring major and smaller operators, including long departed operators and vehicles. Most pre 2000 shots are scans of 35mm slides. Vehicle details, thanks to PSV Circle records. Please note UC/L&D are shown with relevant fleets as they ended up, ie KVV 239V is on L&D even though photo is in UC days.
All depot shots were taken with permission of that company to which thanks are extended
These photos are for your enjoyment so feel free to use in your private collections.
Thank you for visiting. |

Have lived in the Bedford area for most of my life with a spell between 91-7 in Luton, I live on the outskirts of the county town now, working for a large retail outlet with hours that allow plenty of free time during the day. Having followed the rail and bus industry from an early age and can just remember the end of steam and the Blue Pullman on the Midland Mainline, my bus interests stem from summer holidays firstly at Yarmouth then the Isle of Wight and Bournemouth. I have many memories of the loaned and purchased vehicle of UC in the seventies but alas no photos. At present am working on a UC vehicle history.
My main interests outside our local area are Scottish fleets and Hong Kong. Will add a section on my scottish visits of 1988 and 2006 as and when time permits plenty of classic shots there.
