128 is seen on 19th September 1981 from a distant viewpoint above the mouths of the Standedge railway tunnels. It will turn onto the bridge to reach the turning circle, but in North Western days buses would often use this junction at the end of the bridge to turn round, even when one-man operated. Warth Mill is prominent in the background - this was rebuilt after the original burnt down and was used by the CWS for flannel production, then from 1928 by Tanner Brothers for tyre fabric production. This ceased in the 1970s.
