I Have attempted to design this site so that you can find the information you want in
relevant and logical areas.
The first two pages show you how you can contribute to improving the information I have
so far*; and assist you if you are a current public transport user by giving information
about known service changes.
* Please note that I currently have more information than I have time to upload at present - particularly in terms of timetables (see my sources page);
I will try to upload more information as and when time permits.
These are followed by five ‘large areas’ which offer a ‘fly-out’ menu when you ‘hover’
your mouse over the main subject page in the menu on the left. You can either click
on the main page in that menu to see what’s available, or move your mouse over
the pages that ‘fly-out’ to go directly to that page.
The first main area is the yearly Summaries. I have divided the pages into 5 year blocks
so that if you are interested a particular period of time, you can go straight to it. I will only
add information here where I can pin an event down to at least a particular a month.
The second main area is the former bus companies. Where possible, I’ve given a little
introduction and followed it up with an image gallery; click on any image to enter the
gallery where you’ll see bigger images.
The third area is the current bus companies, with each page having a table of services
operated (includes links to timetables where there is one online), a little write up about
the company and images where I’ve got some. Again you can click on any smaller image
to enter the gallery containing the larger images.
My fourth main area is called ‘Miscellaneous Bus Stuff’ and has information about every
known bus route that’s ever operated in Thurrock*, as well as some fleet information, a
page dedicated to what Thurrock bus operators get up to outside the Thurrock area and
a page dedicated to buses that used to operate in Thurrock but have now moved on
elsewhere. I envisage this area appealing more to the ‘bus enthusiast’ as opposed to the
‘ordinary man on the street’, so to speak - have a look though, you never know you it
might be more interesting than you thought!
* Please note that this is a new feature and is far from complete at the time of writing.
The fifth main area is dedicated to the railway in Thurrock, with pages for each station
which show a basic table of first & last trains, some general information, then a gallery
of images where I have any to show.
These larger areas are complemented by single pages showing details of Tilbury Ferry
services, taxi services (including a table of relevant phone numbers) as well as pages
dedicated to buses which have moved on from service within Thurrock and those that
have, or still do, operate services entirely outside the Thurrock area.
The final few pages contain the usual links to other useful websites, a list of all my
sources of information (a big thank you is due here, particularly to those that have
agreed to let me use their images) as well as a site map which shows all the pages
that make up the website. Also within these last few pages are links to my Guest book
and the Forum.
All links to external pages will open a new page/tab in your browser.
