[Bus Spotting - E8]
Following Chester, I had run out of money badly, so had to cancel any other trips till I was paid again. Luckily, this is about to change as I have money again, and am also in London at the end of this week. Anyway, being desperate to get bus spotting once more, I headed for Bury, a place I really enjoyed getting photos at last year, and knew was going to prove great for a film. Once based in Lancashire, then it's own Metropolitan Borough in the 70s which eventually became part of Greater Manchester. Despite this, I feel like the town still has a massive Lancashire feel to it.
This interchange has seen a lot of changes this past year, with the First Greater Manchester routes that operated here passing over to Diamond and Go-Ahead. It's also one of the few areas of Greater Manchester to not see Stagecoach, meaning you get a nice variety of colours and vehicles throughout your stay. The routes by Diamond here are also a great place to catch the Diamond ex-Yourbus Citaros, as they usually reside on the 524.
Vehicles we saw here include;
• Diamond North West
- Alexander Dennis E20D/Enviro 200s.
- a Mercedes-Benz O295 Citaro.
- an Optare Solo M950.
- Volvo B7RLE/ Wright Eclipse Urbans, on hire from First Gtr Manchester.
- a Wright Streetlite DF Micro-Hybrid.
- Wright SC5DDRDXU2/ Streetdecks.
• Go North West
- an Alexander Dennis E20D/ Enviro 200.
- an Alexander Dennis E40D/ Enviro 400.
- a Wright Streetlite DF Max.
- Volvo B9TL/ Wright Eclipse Gemini vehicles.
• Transdev Blazefield (Rossendale/ Rosso)
- Alexander Dennis E20D/Enviro 200s
- a Scania K230UB/ Wright Solar.
- Wright Streetlite DFs.
- Volvo B7RLE/ Wright Eclipse Urbans.
- Volvo B7RLE/ Wright Eclipse 2s.
• Tyrers Coaches
- an Optare Versa V970H.
