Vintage SELNEC bus in Stockport

Seeing a vintage bus in Stockport.

I saw this Leyland National vintage bus - in SELNEC (South East Lancashire North East Cheshire) livery - on the A6 Wellington Road South in Stockport this afternoon.

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

The photo below shows one of the current Bee Network buses on the other side of the road.

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

Heritage buses and coaches in Hunstanton

A look at some heritage buses and coaches in Hunstanton.

While walking around Hunstanton we spotted several old buses and coaches parked up at the bus depot.

They were very interesting to see.

The vehicles were on the 'Geoff Hanson Memorial Run' - an annual event in honour of local transport enthusiast Geoff Hanson. You can read more about the Geoff Hanson Memorial Run on the East Norfolk Bus Blog.

Some nice old advertising on this Eastern Counties bus

This double decker bus had some nice old advertising on it too
