Ribble Express and Limited Stop timetable books 1947-1971 (DSCF2057)

The Express and Limited Stop service timetables of Ribble were contained in their own timetable book quite separate from the four area timetable books covering stage carriage services. It was to be circa 1970 before the two types of service could be seen in the same publication. This collage shows five different examples of the former for the Summer periods of 1947, 1949, 1964, 1965 and 1971. The 1965 issue heralded the start of the larger format books with timetables quoted in the 24 hour clock format.
