    Thanks for the update. Do you know how many a week they are planning to do? Let’s hope the outside contractors paint the light clusters black too

    I’ve read (although I wasn’t born) there was lots of negativity, perhaps more so when the old corporation colours of Greater Manchester were wiped out and replaced with orange and white back in 1969.

    First West of England (Bristol, Bath & The West)

    There has been rumours over the years that Bury would close due to the location in the middle of the retail area of the town. Also lack of investment in Bury's fleet over the years has been evident.
