Working for Ribble and Standerwick.
Founded in Preston in 1919, Ribble Motor Services grew to be the largest and best known bus and coach operator in north-west England. During the 1970s Paul Kirkham worked for the company and its W.C. Standerwick coaching subsidiary.
This new book is a mix of history, geography, travel, operations, vehicles, depots, industrial relations, people, places (Blackpool and the Lake District in particular), incidents and stories.
Great days, but not always as rosy as we sometimes think.
The past can be a strange place.
