Updated 15th May. Another large batch of new views added. Reinstated slide offer closing soon. Collections wanted.
Our re-introduced slide offer will close on 15th June. For details send an e-mail or SAE. You can also have Ron's dustbin list of withdrawn and secondhand slides in the same way, slides from 60p. Another large selection of images were uploaded on 15th May. Many of these are of mixed classes of engine or steam/diesel/combinations. Search in Steam, refs 1500-1670. There are also rare pictures of West Highland steam in the 1930s and more pictures for modern traction modellers. Our latest catalogue, 20, remains available at £10 where you will find details of all the slides that are to be withdrawn in September, and our book A Colour-Rail Journey at just £25. If you want an image of a specific loco or location, and you can't find it, drop us a mail and we will check our files to see if we have something in the cupboard! We are always interested in expanding the collection. If you, or someone you know, has slides or black & white negatives that are literally gathering dust, and you would like to find them a good home, then please contact us. Collections are regularly being lost to deterioration or the bin man- save yours before it is too late.
Bus & Tram Photos, Prints and Slides

Welcome to our powerful search tool. You can specify as little or as much as you like to find what you are looking for.

  • Colour - Black & White, or both, and Format - Download, Slide, Print or any combination
  • Reference - if you know the reference number of the view that you want, just type it in.
  • Chassis and Body types – abbreviations as used by the PSV Circle. For Trams, enter ‘Tram’ in the Chassis field.
  • Registration - as carried. Type without spaces, not case sensitive.
  • Date - this can be just the year e.g. 1968, month and year e.g. Sep-68 or the exact date e.g. 14/09/1968. Please note - many views are undated. By selecting a date or even a year, you may exclude a large number of images.
  • Company (free text) - We have found great difficulty in designating exact company names, partly because they have changed so frequently in recent years and also because as a number of views are undated, the owner’s correct title could not be established. E.g. for Bristol you might need to try Bristol Omnibus, City Line, First Bristol etc.
  • Fleet No (free text) - as allocated to the vehicle at the time the picture was taken, free text field. Please note - you must select a Company in order to search by fleet number.
  • Location (free text) - Usually a town or city but for e.g. London, district names may be used.
  • Description (free text) - This field contains any other information about the picture. E.g. unusual liveries. In some cases more than one vehicle appears in a view. To find these shots enter ‘plus’ in this field.
