The ride quality along the poorly surfaced B5085 is much worse than travelling on buses on poorly surfaced roads in countries officially categorised as developing countries. |

WSV551 is now repainted front, back and skirts in a light purple colour (remainder in yellow) which is very similar to the Manchester Storm overall livery used on the excel with the same reg in the past. |

It's the new livery for the schools vehicles that previously had the LG front end however the other 2 done so far WSV541/552 carry fleet blue. --- Thanks Ant Check out my YouTube Channel updated regularly at 18:00 Most Days; https://www.youtube.com/c/apdmediatransp...nel/videos Check out my content on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter/albums Updated recently with a trip down to the South Coast in 2021 & Railway Pictures from 2017. |

I saw one of these in all dark blue livery in Eccles yesterday late afternoon. When I first spotted it from a distance, I hoped it would belong to Diamond and work route 293! Diamond buses are of course often dark blue. |
