Classic Bus | Dec 19/Jan 20 (164)
Conventional, front-engined, half-cab buses with concealed radiators were often referred to as having tin fronts. Michael Dryhurst guides us round a selection of these, some prettier than others, while Peter Caunt puzzles about the accuracy of the paint lines on a preserved Ribble White Lady.
Cardiff said goodbye to its trolleybuses 50 years ago – Roger Davies was there and recalls those final days; we also look at the last rites of East Kent’s AEC Regent Vs in Canterbury. Duncan Smith went to Orsett in Essex to see Lodekkas, but get more than he bargained for, and also in Essex, we see a Green Line RF in a Green Line livery it only wore for a matter of days.
Talking about RFs, you tell us what that pocket on the inside was for. You also give us your views on Midland Red’s home-made efforts. Jeremy Williams shows us a Northern Counties bodied Atlantean (and thereby hangs a tale), and although they say the camera never lies, we have a postcard that certainly does…
We also have unearthed some Duple proposals for its Super Vega model that never saw the light of day and we’ll tell you all about the Battle of Newton Cap.
Finally, there’s our lively and well-illustrated Forum section, Roger Davies on bus manufacturing and a look at some new books.
