Classic Bus | Aug/Sep 2023 (186)
Harrington may have ceased coachbuilding well over 50 years ago, but there was a fine array of its erstwhile beauties at Wythall in the Spring. We report on that, and a strange proposal from Marshall found in The Bus Archive for an open-platform, rear-entrance double decker – we assume for London. And while we’re on about oddities, we look at MCW’s unpopular Topaz coachwork.
A picture of a small bus at very rural Lower Ashton in Devon in 1963 in the previous edition has led to pictures and a story of minibuses at both Higher and Lower Ashton a few years later in this issue. We have more buses going under bridges, a bus that ended up on the rails in Ireland, a lot of buses lining roads in Yorkshire when the Pope dropped by, and Bristol KSWs on route 1 in Bristol.
The Western Isles of Scotland are beautiful. Stephen Morris felt the call and tells us of a memorable family visit to Skye he made in 1981 by coach and bus. Inspired by a comment from the late Robert Jowitt, Michael Dryhurst shows us a range of buses viewed from a different angle, while Chris Drew tells us about a Routemaster coach he has known and loved over the years.
Plus there’s our popular, lively and well-illustrated Forum section with topics ranging far and wide, and a look at some new books.
