Hello dear readers/viewers.

well I saw some pics from this place posted on line and tried to find some info on it and on it's whereabouts.
This information proved as easy to find as Lord Lucan (I mighta said Osama Bin Laden but his ass has now
been nailed).

Anyway it's a bunch of abandoned buses of varying ages and states of decay - some look almost in as bad
state as my ageing frame but hey ho.

They are all sat in a farmers field - I believe he has a large and vociferous dog, but read somewhere that it
is mostly chained up - i'd have preferred always chained up but I decided to jump in the car, once I eventually
found the place - took me quite some time, and go see if the place I thought might be it was indeed it.

So here's the piccies:


I believe this is the most modern vehicle Arriva have in their entire fleet

air conditioning for the driver with an excellent view of the road ahead

I'm thinking some of these may have been there for a while.
