Guess the *BUS* Station

[madannie77]

The filename gave me a clue

This one is extracted from Google Streetview.

I did not know it was possible to see the filename of the embedded image. I shall bear that in mind.

Protours is a Manx company I recall. I am not certain, but I have a feeling that is bus stand by Ramsey bus garage.

 

[madannie77]

It is not Ramsey. I am not certain that Isle of Man locations are allowed under the rules of this quiz.

 

[clagmonster]

It must be on an excursion off the island then, so presumably a tourist destination. Let's go for Aberystwyth.

 

[madannie77]

Not Aberystwyth either

Annie: Taunton?
SWT158: Norwich?

 

[madannie77]

Annie: Taunton?
SWT158: Norwich?

Mine is not Taunton

(I am certain that the other one is the old bus station in Norwich, though)

 

[clagmonster]

Annie: Skegness?

Thanks to whichever mod deleted SWT158's post. I'm fairly sure it was Norwich and that photo was almost certainly taken well before I moved to Norwich, possibly well before I left.

A general reminder: Please ensure that the previous 'photo' has been completed before you post a new photo, whenever I spot instances of multiple photo's running before guessing is well under way I do try to nip it in the bud, it is down to the correct guesser of photo's location to set a new challenge or to declare an open floor.

Cheers,

Not Skegness.

Llandudno?

 

[madannie77]

Llandudno?

Not Llandudno, nor anywhere in Wales.

 

[Ivo]

Cleethorpes? Is that anywhere near the correct answer?

 

[madannie77]

Cleethorpes? Is that anywhere near the correct answer?

No: it is the wrong coast.

 

[martinsh]

Wild guess - Cleveleys ?

 

[clagmonster]

So, we on on the West Coast and not in Wales. Let's try Morecambe, seeing as it is near the ferries from Heysham.

 

[madannie77]

Wild guess - Cleveleys ?

Cleveleys it is. Over to you.

 

[martinsh]

Cleveleys it is. Over to you.

Well how about that ? I've never actually been to Cleveleys bus station, but the building did look vaguely like some of the old Blackpool tram stops.

Now try this one

 

[madannie77]

Whitefield

 

[martinsh]

Whitefield

Well that went quicker than I expected ! Did you recognise it or did I leave some clues ?

The last time I was in Whitefield the Bus Station was on the other side of Stanley Road, where Morrisons is now :-?!

The bus registration is where I started: it is with Maytree Travel, so I looked at where Maytree operated and where there was an interchange at a railway station on an electrified line. First one I checked was Whitefield, which matched perfectly.

Anyway, my next offering:

 

[martinsh]

Hereford

 

[madannie77]

Not Hereford

 

[clagmonster]

Worcester?

 

[madannie77]

Not Worcester either.

 

[clagmonster]

Lichfield?

 

[madannie77]

Not Lichfield: getting colder.

 

[clagmonster]

Cheltenham?

 

[madannie77]

Not CHeltenham

 

[Ivo]

Buckingham?
