Manchester Buses from the Platform

Rob Barton started his career as a guard (and, later driver) for Manchester Corporation Transport Department in the 1960s and this book charts his progress through the service from the municipal operations of the 1960s to today's private bus companies. This book is not just an autobiography, but is filled with social history about the way things have changed for ordinary people and observations of what now seems like a different world. 400 pages packed with over 600 illustrations, many in colour showing vehicles tickets and much more.
