establishments. We visit Aldenham Bus Overhaul Works in 1972 and 1977 and
Chiswick Works in 1973 and 1976, In addition London Transport held public

SINGAPORE BUSES
Volume One SINGAPORE BUS SERVICE Part One EARLY SINGLE-DECK BUSES AND THE FIRST DOUBLE-DECKERS By Mike Davis – Ron Phillips and F. W. York |
NOW AVAILABLE
The
present day SBS Transit can trace its ancestry back 100-years to the opening
of the first electric trams in 1905.
It is thus most appropriate that the
first part of the vehicle history of SBS should be published in this
centenary year. Following the format of earlier DTS
Publishing books on Hong Kong Buses, published in the 1990s, this book
examines the vehicles inherited by SBS upon its formation in 1973 as well as
most bus types purchased new up until approximately 1983. Also included are the single-deck
demonstration vehicles taken into stock for evaluation as well as the first
double-deckers of 1977. A4 softbound, 102 pages. 180
pictures,(including 45 in colour) plus fleetlists of all known buses within
the period reviewed. A second volume to bring the
story up to date is under active and advanced preparation |
