The commemorative book on Blackpool's Bus Centenary originally planned for publication towards the end of 2020 has had to be delayed and we are hoping it will be ready for Easter 2021. More details will be confirmed over the course of the year.

A further title in the 'Municipal Transport' series is being assembled for 2021. This will deal with Blackpool's transport (buses and trams) during the 1920s.
