Busworld Photography: It must be Baden

BUSWORLD PHOTOGRAPHY

I AM CHRISTOPHER LEACH THE ARTIST. I started this blog so that I can share with everyone my vast collection of transport photographs showing a personal and nostalgic view of the industry with images that span some 45 years taking in the U.K and some of Europe. I have no darkroom and so rather than being the perfectionist after tidying them up I upload the images warts and all, and even those that won't scan squarely or are scratched. In a way it adds age and character. You are all free to download these for your personal use but please remember I still own them and you are not just free to use them without prior permission for any knd of publishing. Click on images to enlarge them and if you want to see more leave your comments or visit my website for the mother-site with galleries including those Buses & Girls: PICTUREWORLD

It must be Baden

Amongst my favourite post buses of the regie PTT owned fleet were these Leyland-DAB Saurer articulated P27506-27512 buses built in 1976 with bodywork by Ramseier & Jenzer AG of Biel. By the time I returned to explore Swizerland at the start of the Nineties they were nearly all at Endingen and one knew when they had arrived at Baden as one was usually laid-over in the station yard. This was a reject photo taken against the light but it's wonderful what a little photoshop wizardry can do.
