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

Enjoying the Greenery of Dartmoor on a Former Green Line Tiger.

One of the things I looked forwards to when I went to Tavistock was a ride to Plymouth on a Western National Olympian or Bristol VR. The odd long distance bus also called in as well like this Plaxton Paramount bodied Tiger formerly Green Line B291 KPF which I think was on it's way from Bude which offering an element of added comfort to it's Leyland sounds was also most agreeable. I'm not sure but perhaps this was a replacement for the Jennings service as previously there was often one of their coaches at Bretonside on the run.
