The first part of what is planned to be a major update of the Saddleworth Buses has been uploaded, a relatively small batch of photos showing buses from Greenfield to Manchester on the 180 and also the X80 which has come and gone since the last update.  These photos are incorporated in the gallery but also in a separate "latest photos" gallery so that you can easily see just the new additions.  You can find the gallery at http://davidbeilby.zenfolio.com/p720481477.

One or two scans have been improved (well that's my view...) and I have changed the watermark to a new design to be used on all pages in the Saddleworth Buses gallery.  Feedback on that change is welcome.  I have also updated all the keywords and I will add another blog entry soon to set out the policy on keywords to help you make use of them.

Chassis: Wright Streetdeck
Body: Wright H45/29F
Location: Greenfield, Chew Valley Road
Date: 2-May-2015

The Streetdeck trial vehicle passes the King Bill in Greenfield. Unfortunately all its modern technology doesn’t prevent the driver forgetting to change the display for its return journey to Manchester.
