12. It was just before lunch when we set off so with less than a mile done, we stopped off on the outskirts of Bradwell to allow some people to go to MacDonalds. I had put another destination up which was appropriate for a metrobus as they saw regular use on the 400 Trans Lancs Express service. This pleased Ian Berry - a Bolton based driver for First Manchester.

11. This is how 5120 looked when I collected her from Reliance Bus Works in Stoke on Trent. They (Martyn & team) had carried out some repairs and MOT'd her for me. Martyn also blew some paint over the front end to improve is appearance. Compare the front dash and front dome here with pic 3. A suitable Oldham route had been put onto the front by fellow SWPG member Danny Burden.Previous | Next13. The next fotostop was Cannock bus station where we got some strange looks from the Arriva drivers. Note that I'd changed the destination to the oher end of the 400 route - AIRPORT. rather vague and as we were heading towards Birmingham........people were sticking their hands out!
