An elevated viewpoint shows a lot of Greenfield village as well as SELNEC 5282 about to descend the hill at the station on 24th March 1972. More prominent is its Oldham Corporation fleet number on the roof. These were put there as the fuelling point in the garage was controlled from above and a number on the roof permitted ready identification. Roof numbers were discontinued shortly before the formation of SELNEC, but they were not obliterated on renumbering. One orange bus also got them, which was Atlantean 171, one of the very first orange buses (first turned out with an Oldham fleet number) which was repainted at Hyde Road who just put a number there as the bus had it when presented to them.
