About us ...
We began publishing in 1978 when we launched two bi-monthly magazines ‘Fare Stage’ and ‘Bus Fayre’ and then in 1981 both titles were merged together under the ‘Bus Fayre’ title and produced monthly although alternate issues covered the bus scene
present and past and the history of chassis manufacturers and coachbuilders.
After successfully becoming established we began publishing books which largely
traced the history of operators and manufacturers and today we continue in both
fields.
