Southampton City Transport Buses by David J Hutchings

With a wealth of rare and previously unseen images, Southampton City Transport Buses illustrates the development of mainly diesel-powered buses operated by Southampton City Transport and its successors since the early years of the twentieth century until recent times. As well as covering the vehicle types used, the photographs included here attempt to show as much background around the buses as possible to give a fuller portrait of this interesting city and its history. Written by a long-time member of the Southampton & District Transport Heritage Trust and making use of the group’s superb archive, the images presented here give the reader a wonderfully evocative insight into the history of transport in the city.
Born in Southampton, David J. Hutchings has had a lifelong interest in both local buses and railways. A graduate of Reading University and trained horticulturist, David is now retired. He has been interested is bus preservation and history for many years and continues to live in Southampton.
