Low Floor Double Deckers

Low-Floor Double-Deckers

In just under 25 years, double-deck buses in the UK have undergone a transformation. Every double-decker in standard service in the UK today is a low-floor bus offering easy access to everyone. This book traces the story of the UK’s low-floor double-deckers, from the first tentative steps to introduce a new design, to the widespread adoption of this layout and the movement from diesel-powered buses to diesel-electric hybrids, gas, electric and even hydrogen buses. This book tells the story on a model-by-model basis. It is illustrated with many previously unpublished colour images, which show the buses in use throughout the UK.
