    About this ebook

    In Barnsley Buses we have a superb combination of talents. Stephen Farnsworth is not simply an enthusiast where Barnsley Buses are concerned, he is also a singularly competent photographer. Put these talents together and combine them with many years spent working for Yorkshire Traction and the potential for a totally unique publication of Barnsley Buses, rescue vehicles and the facilities required to run and maintain this vital service, is there. Steve also holds a unique collection of bus memorabilia, much of which is also illustrated in the book. Roger Glister, is a specialist transport historian, who has concentrated on the development of public transport in Yorkshire for many years. Roger's research and writing skills deftly bring to life the story of post war bus transport in the Barnsley area. When combined with the photographs and memorabilia supplied by Steve Farnsworth, Roger's historical framework and descriptive prose brings to life this fascinating account of post war public transport in Barnsley.
