The story of bus and tram services in the Edinburgh area in the period following the deregulation of bus services has been rich and varied. Many transport providers, new and old, are featured here, some of which are long-term survivors, while some have disappeared or become part of other operators. The development of Edinburgh’s trams after years of delays and overspent budgets and how travel in the Edinburgh and Lothians continues to evolve are explored in detail.

Through a fine selection of photographs, Richard Walter documents how areas have changed and how the city has experienced everything from bus wars to a better level of integrated transport.

Edinburgh-born Richard Walter has been a contributor of bus-related photos and articles to a range of transport books and magazines over the last 40 years, as well as being involved with other publications and publicity for the industry. He is a freelance journalist for Coach and Bus Week. Gavin Booth has written or edited more than thirty books on buses and spent more than twenty-five years working for the Scottish Bus Group, latterly as Marketing Manager.
