A photographic tribute to Plaxton's popular Paramount years. Photographs all taken during their operating heyday.
In 1983, Plaxton of Scarborough addressed the threat to their market dominance from Continental coachbuilders with the Paramount, a range of luxury coach bodies which included the first purpose-built British double-deck coach body. Over its lifespan, the Paramount could be seen the length and breadth of the UK in fleets big and small and in sizes big and small. The story of these icons of British coachbuilding is told through 180 colour photographs, all taken during their operating heyday and accompanied by informative and sometimes humorous captions.

He has a real fondness for or the products of AEC, and for many years has been a Director and committee member of The AEC Society. Having written numerous articles on coach companies who operated AEC’s, he took the plunge and published his first book, a history or Roselyn Coaches of Cornwall in 2017. He has spent 30 years in the passenger transport industry and lives in rural North Shropshire.
