trip to chorley 17/5/12

today i took a trip to chorley as i had never took photos here before

my first bus of the day was arriva st helens 2699 on route 10A departing thatto heath train station at 8:30am. this bus was an ok example it did not rattle but it was not the fastest of pulsar's i have ever been on.

my next bus was arriva st helens 3026 on route 352 departing st helens bus station at 9:00am. this bus was great its the fastest 30** i have been on so far the only bad thing about it is it rattles if you break hard

next bus was arriva bolton 2682 on route 362 departing wigan at 9:55am. this bus had its good and bad points, its one of the fastest pulsar's at bolton but it does rattle a bit when breaking and going over bumps

i then spent an hour getting some photos here is one of the photos i liked




 i then started to make my return trip and my next bus was 2998 arriva bolton on route 362 depart chorley 11:55am for a start this bus pulled out 13 mins late and the driver was a grumpy one... now getting to the bus its ex manchester and this is the first time i have seen it in service at bolton, part of one of the chairs had the old arriva cushion on that must of been put on to cover a rip, the bus also did a lot of rattling

3319 arriva southport on route 375 departing wigan at 12:40pm



 i was shocked to see that on this route as they are only ment to be at southport for schools. the bus was a bit warm and did rattle a bit while the bus was moving but its well worth a ride and dare i said to be preserved.

2703 arriva st helens on route 352 departing orrell at 1:00pm. this bus has improved a bit since i last had it the bus was really fast but it rattles and rocks, must be the worst renown at st helens.

1044 arriva st helens on route 89 departing st helens at 2:00pm. this bus was fast and with a strong engine however it sounded like there was something under the bus was about to fall of.
