Waiting at the top of St Albans Avenue 19101 (I think) - heard it when it was at Broadoak roundabout, like a faint plane taking off and then climbing that hill up onto Lees Road.... And when it finally passed me I nearly went deaf! B9s always sound good though, especially when loud.

Im Guessing it was on the 231? It seems to be on the 231 most days as it actually woke me up one morning this week it was so loud. God knows what its like on board downstairs.
I just don't understand why they leave it so long before they repair them.

Actually it was on school duties but it has woke me up a few times going down sunny side road in droylsden... and as for sitting downstairs... I am a heavy metal listener and full volume doesn't shut it out when upstairs!
