Cumbria Buses: Barrow in Furness 1948-1989

As a young teenage bus enthusiast in 1961, the author spent an extended holiday in Barrow-in-Furness, a large but remote shipbuilding town in the Furness district now in Cumbria but at that time part of Lancashire. Although a Yorkshireman the author has since retired to Cumbria so the book has double interest for him. Using family photographs augmented with photographs from enthusiasts and societies the author has produced an overview of bus operations in Barrow over a 40 year period. With details of buses used, routes and destinations it has the information the bus enthusiast desires and also is a nostalgic romp through the buses of old that took the people of Barrow to school and to their work.
