Synopsis

Golden Miller was a rare bus operator permitted to run bus services within London Transport's vast monopoly area. Starting in 1967, the company went on to build up a network of routes around Feltham in west London and Staines in Surrey. Its frequently-changing fleet comprised a fascinating array of mostly second-hand buses sourced from across the United Kingdom and even Ireland! The growth of Golden Miller and transition into Tellings-Golden Miller, including the latter's Cardiff Bluebird operation, is described along with insight into some of the personalities involved. Comprehensive fleet lists detail all vehicles operated. Photo galleries illustrate the development of individual routes along with coaches, contract work, and garages, using 155 pictures including images of previous and successor operators on some services. Route maps complement the coverage. This book showcases independent bus variety in an otherwise highly-standardized bus scene.
