The Leyland Fleet Series of books, available to the general
public and at a discounted rate to memebers, are high quality
publications focusing not just on the vehicles but on the companies
and organisations that operated them. The intention is to present
the reader with new facts and photographs, and to try to show some
of the influences that shaped the products of Leyland Motors. The first book in the Leyland Fleet Series, covering Wigan Coproration buses, was published in 2003, since when further titles have appeared. For details of this and other publications, click here. Further titles due to be published soon cover the history of Leyland Fire Engines in a series of books, a topic rarely seen in print. |
