Beschreibung

Over the past hundred years, the scrapping of life-expired buses has changed in numerous ways. From being a physically demanding task, it is now undertaken with the use of sophisticated machinery and governed by ever-increasing environmental and health and safety regulations. While bus breaking was initially concentrated in certain areas across the UK, where metal recycling facilities were close at hand, it has ultimately become a nationwide activity.

Here Keith Jenkinson remembers those buses that have disappeared from our daily road transport scene, evoking fond memories of bygone eras.
