Bøker av Andrew Wiltshire

A chronological history of the trams and municipal buses of the city of Newport, with text, comprehensive data tables, and many color and black/white photographs.

This book takes a chronological look at the Cardiff Bus fleet from 2000 until 2020 and covers the various types of vehicles operated during this period.

The National Bus Company was an important part of passenger road transport between 1969 and 1988. It did not operate buses itself, but was the owner of a number of regional, subsidiary bus operating companies. Over 100 color photographs.

In this second softback, 96 page book of South Wales tugs, the author, Andrew Wiltshire takes a close look at tugs in South Wales ports from Swansea to Port Talbot, then Barry, Cardiff, and finally Newport.

This softback, A5 size book takes a chronological look at the National Welsh fleet to illustrate both the variety of vehicles operated, particularly in the early days, and the fascinating mix of urban and rural landscapes through which they worked between 1978 and 1992. It will hopefully serve as a reminder of a company which packed a great deal into its 14 years in existence, and which was always of interest to the bus enthusiast. 80 pages with over 80 colour images.

This book treats us to views of the famous London buses in chronological order, from the traditional types to the modern battery-electric bus. During the 1970s, the bus scene became increasingly interesting as London Transport struggled with unreliable and unsuitable vehicles. Most of these were far from life-expired, and their premature departure made the sourcing of suitable replacements a matter of urgency. During the 1980s, the London bus scene became one of constant change and was increasingly driven by politics. The increasing variety of vehicle types was accompanied by a proliferation of liveries but, throughout all this change, the Routemaster continued to live on in healthy numbers, and would do so for many more years to come.
