But at least I have my bus pass so I can travel free which is some consolation at least. They use dedicated buses on the Stafford-Newport-Wellington-Telford 481 Service but occasionally others appear like this similar Wright bodied VDL 2636 from Wellington Garage.

Today I might not be able to pick up the girls.....

Nice try Christopher, but you clearly didn't take this picture "today" as the trees suggest a Winter scene even if the girl's clothing doesn't support that interpretation.
ReplyDeleteHaving said that, what strikes me about this scene is how neat and tidy everything is. The shelter, the bus itself, the coloured road surface. So there would seem to be hope. There was a time that everything that was buses in Britain had to be a mess and councils apparently put their cheapest and worst designers onto giving urban bus stops that special ambiance that made heroin addicts feel at home and gave everybody else the creeps.

Stafford is not the scruffiest place and we have a fairly good system of tendered routes meaning there is even a service on Sunday's to places like Telford, Wolverhampton and Lichfield. As for 'Today' I didn't mean it literally, more of recent times.
