Chelmsford Buses in the Twenty-first Century

This book documents the surprisingly varied bus scene in Chelmsford, one of Britain’s newest cities, since 2000. Although the main operator is First, whose fleet in the city is mainly single deck due to the famous low railway bridge in Duke Street, the fleet does still have a number of double-deckers. In fact, the number of double-deckers in Chelmsford has increased in recent years as First have converted several inter urban routes to double-deck operation. The new liveries recently introduced by First are also featured in this book. In addition to First, Chelmsford continues to be served by other operators such as Arriva, Stephensons and Go Ahead Group subsidiary Hedingham. Regal Busways were also a familiar sight in Chelmsford before their demise. All are included here.Containing high-quality photographs, this book will appeal to those interested in the ever evolving and fascinating bus scene in Chelmsford.

David Moth is a keen photographer of many subjects, but mainly of buses and trains. This interest in buses and railways has led him to photograph both subjects throughout Britain. Other interests include Real Ale, science fiction novels, football and astronomy (particularly planets, exoplanets and Kuiper belt objects.) He is also very keen on progressive rock, old and new.
