Paint shop

Took this the other day. I don't really get chance to snap anything obscure anymore due to the job. But here we are. This is ashton bus 19066 which has had new panels as well as a new coat of paint coming up. They do look pretty nice when they come out though. Especially the older buses. Ashton bus station today and for once it's been a pretty nice day. The only problem being the 330 suffering due to roadworks both in Gee Cross and in Stockport. But all in all nice quiet day. Tomorrow is a nice change too. Piccadilly tomorrow on an early so early night for me. Need a new phone too i think. There is a glow with the pictures i take with this and it's getting annoying now. Will have a look around. Oh and forgot to mention. Not much happening on the bike this summer due to injury but all ok now, back in the gym and hoping for some nice rides out soon.

    Did 19066 suffer damage to the side or something?

    Did you know that 19066 left side curved rail missing from outside of the top floor window and the rear destination number slightly out of place.

    40361 seen around Ashton but no sign of 40406.

    Not accident damage as such but if a panel has a slight bump or scratch on it they will replace it. As for the tree bars i didn't notice it missing. I know 19085 has one missing too.

    Just been on 19345 on the 330. Nice slight change. Another breakdown replacement at Ashton on loan from Stockport I assume, unless it's simply covering for buses in the paint shop. Glad you're alright.
