today i made a move on greater manchester, the county i like the most, the main aim of this trip was to take a ride on the recently opened tram line from manchester city station to oldham mumps
Arriva St Helens Marshall Dart 7647 on route 33 to St Helens
a great example of a bus,it was able to get up to a great speed and did not rattle! i was really shocked at how good this marshall was compared to some of the other examples.
Arriva St Helens Wright Renown 2701 on route 352 to wigan
this was a good bus,its one of only few renowns that sounds healthy, this bus was also able to get up to great speeds however a pole rattle did let it down a bit
Arriva Bolton 2800 on route 362 to Copull
this must be the most well known bus wih arriva north west, it is quick of the mark but does rattle a lot, a bit of a let down for such a popular bus
Arriva Bolton Pulsar 1 2678 on route 362 to Wigan
another great bus! the bus was really fast and quite quick of the mark with a strong engine to make things better and it very even rattled, must be the best pulsar 1 with arriva north west!
i then decided to stop nipping on local services i go on a lot and get out there
South Lancs Travel Wright Solar 26 on route 132 to The Trafford Centre
i cant say to much about this bus as i spent most of the time asleep but it did have a strong engine behind it but sadly did rattle a bit at the rear!
i then took my first break of the day
First 69206 on route 100 to Eccels
this was the only decent bus pulled in when i got back onto the bus station, as we pulled out the trafford centre grounds our driver almost took us via the middle of a 4 door car. the bus itself was very impressive and did not rattle, give it a better driver and i might just ride it again
Arriva Manchester Wright Commander 2626 on route 10 to Manchester
this bus was really slow of the mark and the breaks was that bad we almost went through a red light, the bus also made a rusty noise when we was in first gear but the bus did not rattle so it made an ok ride
Metrolink Manchester 3026 to Oldham Mumps
i did not like this tram at all it was really slow and louder than most. the tram also had a funny smell and a standing load to go with it.
i then took time of for dinner and a look around as i had never been to oldham before
Metrolink Manchester 3009 to Mancheser S-HILL
this tram was slightly better than the other, it was a bit faster and did not smell however yet again it had a standing load
First 34294 on route 137 to Bury
this bus could really move! it was quick of the mark and could get to great speeds flat out, the only bad thing was you could really feel them bumps in the road but with a little TLC this bus would be well worth being preserved
Mertolink Manchester 1020 to Manchester
this tram was good, a lot faster than the newer ones and an even more cumfy ride, one of the best trams i have ever been on
First 30805 on route 93 to bury
well we got to test this buses breaks out as some car came in front on the bus but the bus was able to break in time to avoid crashing into the car, this bus was also rattle free with a strong engine behind it
Metrolink Manchester 1020 to Manchester AGAIN!!
no change from the above ride.
i then took a train to wigan from man vic and a train to thatto heath (where i live), since i know very little about trains i refuse to comment on them only to say it was a good chance to get more sleep :D
