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

All Change in Berlin

Time is a cruel master pushing us along and looking back at some of these old photos still feels like yesterday. As well as having computer problems I've also just come back from Berlin which is one reason why I haven't been adding much. However once I get everything sorted I hope to get back into it again if the summer doesn't turn out to be a good one. This time in Berlin another once ubiquitous bus type of BVG had disappeared from the streets and that was the Mercedes 0405. In 1985 the first deliveries took the numbering sequence back to 2000 and soon afterwards another series from 1000. No.1060 was seen heading for Tegal Airport on Route 109, itself due for eventual closure once the now being enlarged main former East Berlin airport at Schonefeld is fully operational.
