‘Scene’ On the Roads in Hebden Bridge, West Yorkshire on Dennis Basford’s railsroadsrunways.blogspot.co.uk’

Friend Peter Rose recently returned from holiday based in Hebden Bridge.

 

An attractive market town set in the valley of the river Calder which shares the steeply sided narrow valley with the Rochdale Canal, the A646 road and the railway line linking Manchester with Bradford and other parts of West Yorkshire.

 

Because of its location the town does have flooding problems that with the effects of global warming will probably get worse.

I think these small 30 seat Solo’s are very attractive buses.

My usual source shows it as being new in 2014 to ‘First Games Transport’ which took place in 2012 which seems a bit odd for a bus new in 2014.
