Published in partnership with the company, this illustrated book celebrates 50 years of National Express.
First appearing in 1972, National Express coaches have become a familiar site on the UK’s roads, and are very much a part of popular culture, celebrated in songs and on television. With many former National Express vehicles finding their way to preservation, this book explores the history of this very British brand and celebrates the history and heritage of a British institution. The book covers the operations of the business, the evolution of the National Express brand and the development of the fleet up to the latest Caetano Levante, a vehicle designed to meet the operator’s very specific requirements for accessibility.
Featuring driver stories and passenger memories, together with detailed images, photographs and designs, this book celebrates 50 years of coaching history.
