First of all, apologies about the quality of this shot. With the camera not being set correctly with it being a snap shot due in the main to the road layout at the time. This B10M is seen here leaving the dinginess of the old Blackpool Bus Station, onto Talbot Road, on 15/07/1995. It was operating through to Fleetwood, via Poulton, on Service F6. Despite it's Scottish registration, it was new to Ribble in 11/1994 but was intended to be Stagecoach Glasgow(083). Another seven with the 'PRS' mark were also acquired by Ribble, 428/37-42, M782/94-9PRS.

Although the car park remains on top of the bus station, this area has since been totally re-developed. The buses stopped using the bus station back in 2002.

The camera being a Praktica MTL3 with the film being a Boots Colourslide.

I would request, as with all my photos, that they are not copied or downloaded in any way, shape or form. © Peter Steel 1995.
