This Ailsa Volvo bus is seen near the end of Station Road in Wigan, in the early 1980s.
It is painted in the orange and white livery of Greater Manchester Transport.
The second picture is taken from approximately the same spot recently. The engine
in this bus was at the front, immediately to the left of the driver, so it had a drivers
cab door on the offside, reminiscent of thousands of “Half Cab” buses from the past.
