I'm sure not just for the enthusiasts but all who remember them a smart preserved bus painted in proper colours must bring a bit of cheer even on a horrible wet day. Former North Western Road Car 206, a Weymann bodied Bristol L5G of 1950 was busy taking past in the Stockport Weekend held at the Boyle Street Bus Museum a month or so ago. Manchester seems to be going through a bit of a renaissance at the moment with lots of high-rise building in particularly dilapidated areas such as here north of the city centre in the Ancotes District.
Many know my more recent genre Buses and Girls photography as those earlier buses I really like have all gone so now I enjoy my bus hobby more for the photography. As well as being an artist I owned a small transport business before I retired but today I have a little job too driving a minibus dong a school run to Wolverhampton in the afternoon and occasionally other jobs. It gets me out and about and satisfies my childhood ambition to drive a bus.
