Just in case you want to start a picture collection of broken down buses. It's getting a few horns now which considering the hazard lights are on is very odd. Any ideas where this is?
Looks like Audenshaw, on the one way system at the junction of Droylsden Road, Manchester Road and Lumb Lane. The flowery bank on the left is where the houses were knocked down to make way for a Metrolink stop.
The trough is at the junction of Audenshaw Road and Ashton Old Road near the former Shell garage (Lockwood and Greenwood). I've boarded many a peak hour evening 220 and seen The Trough as a favoured stopping point among drivers running a little ahead of schedule.

ReplyDeleteYes I agree with Martin its near Rycroft Hall.
ReplyDeletetook a 219 out of Manchester today - so much easier route than the 216 I thought.
