‘The author has previously published two similar books on Stagecoach and Arriva’s operations on Merseyside and is well versed with the area. There are over 180 good quality photos in the 96 pages and are in the usual Amberley format of two to a page with most being of buses at work rather than more mundane depot poses.’ – Omnibus, June/ July 2025‘The vehicles depicted are as varied as the operator’s colourful liveries.’ – Buses Magazine, June 2025‘As well as being an important historic record of public transport, this excellent book is one that can be highly recommended to all enthusiasts weather or not they are familiar with the area.’ – Bus Fayre, Summer 2025
