Excellent capture!

I remember the Leyland Atlantean of 1968 to 1972: they were really slow climbing steep slopes in 1st gear! HFF and Happy New Year, David!

A super shot David. Pure nostalgia. I remember our own bus station back in the day with buses and coaches lined up and a real waiting room and information desk where you could also buy coach tickets. Nothing left but the few odd bus stops and shelter sadly.
I wonder if the 'local paper' advertised on the bus in your photo still exists or if it is mainly online now. It all makes me feel really old!!!!!

Well captured. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and wish you the very best for 2024. Happy New Year!
