A representation of the A6 at Topley Pike between Buxton and Bakewell makes a pleasant front cover for the June 1949 timetable for services provided by the North Western Road Car Company Ltd.

A good find at a recent transport event was this lovely survivor from October 1946. The cover image appears to be a representation of the Lower Mosley Street bus station in Manchester. The route map is still there inside the back cover.

Manchester Bus Timetable, June 1967.

The Isle of Man Railway system was not long off the final closure of most lines when I visited in 1967. The whole system had closed after the 1965 season but was briefly revived when the Marquess of Ailsa obtained a lease and reopened all three routes for a final time in 1967. Both the Peel and Ramsey lines shut following the 1968 season and the tracks on those lines was removed in the 1970s. The green and red printed timetables on yellow card are a souvenir of that summer when you could still enjoy Victorian narrow gauge travel on a whole network of lines. Not that all was steam; the two ex County Donegal railcars were in use and I saw them running back-to-back on some services towards St Johns.
