Our Chair, Phil Trendall, has started a new blog: Policing Public Transport: A Neglected History.
Not officially from the BTPHG, the blog enables Phil to give “my own views on related subjects. The study of police history is not without controversy and it may be that I will sometimes touch on areas where there is not a general consensus. So be it, but I will always seek to avoid offence and I will be interested in hearing alternative views.”
It’s already off to a very promising start and I, for one, have already opted to press the ‘follow’ button.
Phil has already given us permission to use any articles we wish for this website, and I have already started off by ‘lifting’ our first item. The Oldest Railway Policeman? is now housed within our Research section, where it joins over fifty other articles.
And just a reminder that the Research section is just one section of the HistoryBank, where you can find many items of interest.
