Description (What the record is about)
-
This series contains British Railways' national and local fares manuals as used daily by working clerks and ticket inspectors.
The first manual of this series was published in September 1968 and was entitled the Selective Prices Manual. It was for national use with regional supplements duplicating the information for local use. From 1971 local manuals were also issued which contained information not included in the national manual. They were at first unnumbered, but later were given the same issue number as the national manual.
In 1985 the Selective Prices Manual was renamed the National Fares Manual with issue number 29. In 1987, with issue 36, the national edition was dropped and the information was then contained in six manuals (decreased to five in 1990) loosely corresponding with the BRB's regions. These manuals have increasingly covered the information held by the local manuals and, consequently, the local manuals have been withdrawn. However manuals are produced on behalf of P.T.E's (Passenger Transport Executives) and form part of this series.
