Our February meeting was actually held in early March as we joined with the Letchworth Garden City Society to welcome Peter Rose who gave us an information-packed talk on the history of the development of bus services in Letchworth and the surrounding area. With a fascinating range of slides to accompany the narrative we learned about local horse-drawn, gas and steam powered and diesel buses and the characters behind them. Peter has researched the history of bus companies in depth and managed to convey a complex story in a very engaging way.
