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

Purple Motors Fleetline in Bangor

The North Wales coast is most remembered for it's Crosville buses but there had always been interesting Independents too and following Deregulation and cut-back they seemed to expand and maybe even for a while thrive. Sadly some got taken over by Arriva and others went bust but one of the best remembered was Purple Motors of Bethesda who supplied a good variety of buses could be seen in Bangor including this former London DMS Daimler Fleetline.
