In future issues we have

Perish the thought! - the Leyland National is 40 years old this year! Basil Hancock looks at the early prototypes and tells their story.

In 1955 Donald Sinclair wondered what the future would be like in 50 years time. We 'look back' at those predictions - some came true!

We have the story of Maidstone & District's Leyland Panthers and about an enterprising tourist route in Australia using old British double-deckers.

Malcolm Flynn is going round in circles - a personal look at Birmingham's Outer Circle - another great British bus route - while David Beilby tells us about another from Halifax to Sowerby Bridge. And Michael Baker goes to Lough Swilly.v

David Harvey concludes Midland Red's double-deck story with the D10s.

Andrew Bartlett gives us the history of St Margarets bus station in Leicester, and Glyn Kraemer-Johnson unravels the truth behind some old Brighton Hove & District double-deckers.

A Selnec holiday - well why not! And we puzzle about the short lived fad for unpainted buses.

. . . and of course, there are more what ifs, more great British bus routes to go on, and more of your favourite classic buses, and many other features and fabulous pictures of what it used to be like.
