Busworld Photography: WMPTE Guided Bus off The Rails

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

WMPTE Guided Bus off The Rails

The rather cold blue and grey colours rather suited the underpasses and stark concrete surroundings of the old Bull Ring area in Birmingham. WMPTE A104 WVP was one of a special batch of Metrobues built to go on the guided busway, an scheme that was quickly abandoned.
