BUSWORLD PHOTOGRAPHY

I AM CHRISTOPHER LEACH THE ARTIST. I started this blog so that I can share with everyone my vast collection of transport photographs showing a personal and nostalgic view of the industry with images that span some 45 years taking in the U.K and some of Europe. I have no darkroom and so rather than being the perfectionist after tidying them up I upload the images warts and all, and even those that won't scan squarely or are scratched. In a way it adds age and character. You are all free to download these for your personal use but please remember I still own them and you are not just free to use them without prior permission for any knd of publishing. Click on images to enlarge them and if you want to see more leave your comments or visit my website for the mother-site with galleries including those Buses & Girls: PICTUREWORLD

Airport Extra



During the Eighties BVG's main airport route the No.9 was worked by a fleet of fifteen MAN single-deckers in a special attractive blue livery but during the rush-hour ordinary Mercedes-Benz 0407 appeared too. On one occasion I asked the driver if the MAN's were better and his reply was "Too much better." Here is No.1953 one of the final batch delivered in 1984.
