Luton Corporation Transport by Peter A Rose

The book covers the history of municipal transport in Luton from the first horse-drawn buses and the town's electric trams, through to the sale of the undertaking in 1970 to United Counties, the bus company which dominated services in the rest of Bedfordshire. The book includes comprehensive information on the buses operated by LCT and the routes they served. Much of this detailed reference material for the enthusiast is contained in the appendices, allowing the bulk of the book to be devoted to the narrative history of the company. This will have a nostalgic appeal as a local interest title to all who have lived and worked in Luton in the LCT era and beyond that to many bus enthusiasts nationwide.
Peter Rose is retired following a career in banking, and has been researching the history of municipal transport in Luton for many years.
