Many know my more recent genre Buses and Girls photography as those earlier buses I really like have all gone so now I enjoy my bus hobby more for the photography. As well as being an artist I owned a small transport business before I retired but today I have a little job too driving a minibus dong a school run to Wolverhampton in the afternoon and occasionally other jobs. It gets me out and about and satisfies my childhood ambition to drive a bus.

Montreux & Vevey: 40 years of Service
Between 1956-1958 the VMCV Montreux and Vevey trolleybus system took delivery of a fleet of these of what look to me from the wheel-hubs like Saurer trolleybuses and I remembered them well from when I was at school here in Switzerland between 1963-1965. In 1991 they had not changed at all apart from gaining the odd smile and lasted till 1995 when they were replaced by 18 Van Hool/kiepe articulated buses. I doubt very much whether the new generation will last that long.
