Or ‘alifax as we Yorkshire folk are given to calling it.
My first real day out ‘bus hunting’ in 2022 was to the two West Yorkshire towns of Halifax and Huddersfield.
Only 9 or so miles apart in distance but separated in fact by an enormous hill along the top of which runs the M62.
My first stop wherever I go is usually the local bus station.
Unfortunately, the one in Halifax was undergoing severe rebuilding work at the time of my visit and the bit that was still in operation was restricted viewing so it was time to take to the streets.
