A vintage SELNEC bus in Eccles

Spotting an old SELNEC bus in Eccles, Greater Manchester.

Back in August 2019 we spotted this old SELNEC double decker bus in Eccles.

SELNEC was the Passenger Transport Executive in the area from 1969 until it was renamed Greater Manchester Passenger Transport Executive (GMPTE) in 1974.

Greater Manchester Passenger Transport Executive (GMPTE) itself ended in 2011 when it became part of Transport for Greater Manchester (TfGM).
