For those of you who are interested in Bus Depots etc , David Domin has produced a history of Bus Garages and Outstations, Tram and Trolleybus Depots of Major Operators in the Midlands area (i.e Shropshire, Staffs, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire, Leicestershire, Warwickshire, Worcestershire & Herefordshire), I have received a copy in the post today and first impressions it is very good.
