Nice to see a Selnec/Greater Manchester Mancunian (Single door entrance only, note the location of the stairs) staring the video.. This was one of the later Mancunian models which followed the original 1968 Mancunian ones, which had separate entrance and exit doors, the first double decker with a rear engine to do so. This colour scheme stayed throughout most of the 1970s and into the 1980s. The bus shown here is a late J reg (1971) model, the colour scheme was only introduced in early 1970 when most of the buses in the Greater Manchester area came under the Selnec umbrella, later GMT (as shown here).

Apologies here, this Mancunian has double doors, time for me to visit Specsavers, the sooner the better. Around late 1969, Selnec started purchasing Mancunians with single doors, by around 1972 they ceased to buy double decker vehicle with separate entrance and exits.

My friend had a cafe (Jaynes Place) just off the A1 at blyth, Nottinghamshire. Occasionally Stobart trucks would be seen there. I didn't know about the naming of trucks until he pointed it out and after that when I saw one, I'd look for the name.

As a child, i wasn't a fan of these buses. I didn't like the heavy grille compared to "our" Lodekkas, and i was super disappointed that there was no bench seat for me to kneel on to watch the driver ! As a littl'un i couldn't see forward from the front seat unless i stood on it, and i was always brought up not to stand on seats .

This is the crappy 💩 2 car class 142 pacer is 142009 was on loan from NT - Northern to FGW - First Great Western from December 2007 to November 2011. Now class 142009 is in the scrapyard. Hooray 😃. It serves the 2 car class 142 pacer trains 🚊 for being scrapped. Good 👍. Don’t worry 😉 about the pacer trains 🚊 because they won’t be part of BR - British Rail again anymore. 62 x 2 car class 142 pacer trains 🚊 can rest in peace ☮️ ✌️ at the scrapyard. All are standard class accommodation only. 👍

These class 153s were previously allocated to GA - Greater Anglia in east Anglia, England 🏴. 5 x 1 single car class 153s that were in the east Anglia area in England 🏴 were 153306/309/314/322/335 have been replaced by the 14 x 4 car class 755325-338 and 24 x 5 car class 755401-424 in the year 2019 perhaps 🤔 otherwise could be in the early 2020s. These are now renumbered in the 153/9 sets with the toilet 🚽 locked 🔒 out of use. Class 153 sets honestly used to be the 2 car class 155s were converted into the 1 single bubble 🫧 car class 153s. In the past the 1 single car class 153s were used for various regions back then were in the southwest of England 🏴, southern England 🏴, Midlands and finally northern England 🏴. In the present 💝 days the 1 single car class 153s are used for 2 separate train 🚂 🚊 🚆 operators are SR - ScotRail in Scotland 🏴 and TFW - Transport For Wales 🏴 in Wales 🏴 in the year 2023. All of the 1 single car class 153 bubble 🫧 car trains 🚂 🚊 🚆 have standard class accommodation only, non smoking 🚭 accommodation, a carpet open windows 🪟🪟🪟🪟 and rail passengers can sit anywhere they like 👍. 5 x 1 single bubble 🫧 car class 153s are used for SR - ScotRail are 153305/370/373/377/380 conveys a bike 🏍️ 🏍️ 🚲 🚴 🚴 🚲 🏍️ space and are coupled to the 2 car class 156. Class 153 🚂 🚊 🚆 🚆 are used for provincial services and could survive on the railways 🚃 🚆 until at least perhaps 🤔 the deadline date Tuesday 31st December 2030 (New Year’s Eve) 💥 🎆 🎇 🧨 🥳 🤩 🎂 🍰 🧁 🎈🎈🎈 🎊 🎊 🎊 🎉 🎉 🎉 at the latest then they could either go to preserved railways 🚃 🚆 or scrapped. Otherwise could be converted into a cafe 🍵 🍽️ ☕️. Class 153s can become very crowded on trains 🚂 🚊 🚆 because the space is small and limited. 👍👍👍👍
