In this series, Richard Stubbings traces the changing, ever-evolving nature of bus scenes around south-west and south-east England. This book, comprising previously unpublished photographs, offers a nostalgic tour of Berkshire and Hampshire, from the early 1970s to the present day. It charts the changes in vehicles, from those of the author’s childhood to the current scene – even revisiting many of the same locations.

'With previously unpublished photographs, this book offers a nostalgic tour of Berkshire and Hampshire from back in the 1970s to the present day. The book looks at the changes in vehicles from when the author was a child up to the present day - where Richard even revisits many of the same locations. I'm a fan of half-cab buses, so all those pictured are my favourites.' * Ignition Magazine, March 2026 *
