About this product

Product Information

This book outlines the history of transport in the West Yorkshire town of Todmorden from the late-18th to the early-21st centuries, but focuses on the last hundred years during which motor buses have served the area continuously. In 1907, Todmorden Corporation became the pioneers in the North of England of a hitherto untested form of propulsion for public passenger transport. This inevitably resulted in numerous teething problems, but at that stage the Corporation could not possibly have foreseen the extent to which the motor-bus was to dominate the urban passenger transport scene worldwide less than 50-years later. In 1931, the Borough sold half of its interest in its bus service to the LMS Railway, but the joint undertaking continued to pioneer new developments in vehicles until economic and demographic circumstances brought about its decline and loss of independence during the second half of the 20th century. The book forms Volume Five of the Trans-Pennine Nostalgia Road's Fare Stage series.

    The book arrived in perfect condition well packaged. It was a couple of days later than promised but I think this was a PO problem rather than the seller. A good price and as described. When the seller was contacted as the book had not arrived they immediately replied - could not fault. Would use this seller again.

    I buy from this seller all the time and believe them to be the best of the BIG second-hand UK sellers. Comms are excellent and they respond quickly and make a real effort to resolve issues. Pricing is good and descriptions accurate and fair. Postage is free so there won't be any extra packing but I've never had a problem with items damaged in transit.
