Classic Bus Magazine Apr/May 2024 (190) Edição anterior

Daimler was once a significant bus chassis manufacturer and our delve into the Bus Archive this time has revealed a brochure the company produced in the 1960s to trumpet itself and showcase its models. On a slightly different scale, we discover how bus manufacturers were involved in building taxis, too.
 
There’s more about coach stations in London, both near King’s Cross and south of the river at Kennington. And we have another bus under a bridge (only it’s an arch!), more buses on postcards, and another view from on high, this one looking down on a bus in Warrington. This issue also sees the start of a new series by Mike Fenton on lesser-known coach body builders, kicking off with Kenex, as well as more buses leaning over and an explanation about hexagonal destination screens.
 
The world changed significantly for municipal operators in 1973, and in this issue Thomas Knowles remembers what it was like in Lancaster and Morecambe, where he had been newly appointed at the time.

Plus there’s our popular, lively and well-illustrated Forum section with topics ranging far and wide, and a look at some new books.
