Greater Manchester Buses on Dereg Day 1986 vs Apr 2020 Network
Greater Manchester Buses on Dereg Day 1986 vs Apr 2020 Network
I thought it would be excellent idea to compare the bus network how it was on Deregulation Day 1986 to how it is now currently as of April 2020.

How many routes have changed, been cut back or scrapped since the creation of Greater Manchester Buses in 1986 and What routes have the joyess duty of covering theses routes.

Take a browse below of the routes 001 to 099, to see what routes you remember and what cover the route today.
