Guess the *BUS* Station

[paulravuslante]

Just to satisy my curiousity, is that RH Travel on the left in the photo ?

Yes it is. The photo was stolen from this website (at the bottom).

 

[Ivo]

I see the floor is still available after I declared it open overnight?

Not now

 

[madannie77]

Inverness?

 

[Ivo]

Are they are bus stations you haven't been to?

 

[madannie77]

Are they are bus stations you haven't been to?

There are many I have not been to, it just happens that I have been to a lot of the ones posted in this quiz.

Iniverness is quite distinctive, with the library behind, and I prepared an image of Inverness Bus Station for future use in this quiz a couple of days ago, so it was fresh in the mind.

Here's another one. Not sure why I obliterated the registration of the bus: it is obvious which company it is working for (no tricks this time).

winlaton? o/f if right. should know this cos i've been there, but can't quite remember which one it is!

It is Winlaton.

I assume o/f means open floor.

 

[blackettstreet]

I assume o/f means open floor.

indeed.

Leighton Hospital

 

[martinsh]

Leighton Hospital

is correct - you've been everywhere, haven't you ?!

 

[madannie77]

is correct - you've been everywhere, haven't you ?!

Not everywhere, but I have been to many places over many years of bus watching.

Leighton Hospital I have never been to, but having decided it was nowhere in Cheshire that I recognised I just did a bit of lateral thinking.

Next:

 

[Statto]

Looks like a rail station in the background, & the set up looks like Ilkley

 

[madannie77]

Not Ilkley.

 

[150222]

Wallingford?

 

[Deerfold]

South Elmsall?

 

[madannie77]

Not South Elmsall or Wallingford.

It is up north

 

[blackettstreet]

ashington?

edit: open floor in the unlikely event

 

[madannie77]

ashington?

edit: open floor in the unlikely event

The unlikely event is very likely, as it is Ashington. Open floor, as blackettstreet says.

 

[Zamracene749]

OK, here's the floor

One of my own snaps and no doubt Annie will get this .....the bus station was on this exact site and the couple of stops that remain still are (albiet just out of shot) but the adjoining depot is now long gone......

 

[Ivo]

Whitley Bay? Does that even have a bus station?

 

[madannie77]

Whitley Bay? Does that even have a bus station?

Not any more, and the depot has gone as well.

I have no real idea where this is. I know a bit about the history of the bus, but I can't pin down where this photo was taken.

 

[Statto]

Looks like Centrebus, operating a former West Midlands Metrobus, i'll have a stab in the dark at Luton

 

[Zamracene749]

Not Whitley Bay or Luton.

 

[sonic2009]

Stockton-On-Tees?

 

[madannie77]

Stokesley?

 

[150222]

Ashby-De-La-Zouch?

 

[martinsh]

I haven't a clue, but it looks like other people need some help so

this vehicle has been with Moffat & Williamson and Shoreline Suncruisers, Scarborough since Nothern, and since then has been preserved.

Pickering ?
