Overland Buses (iv)

Afghanistan: August 1971

 

This is an AEC Reliance bus I was co-driving from London to India; it is seen here, parked on the Khyber Pass; this was a popular stop for passengers to take photographs. From here, through the heat haze, you get a glimpse of a vast plain stretching as far as the eye could see – the first sight of the sub-continent of Pakistan and India.
