TfGM have updated their service changes page and that shows the 382 as going to Go Goodwins. As have Diamond. Now stating "Go Goodwins Manchester" on their news section and "Go Goodwins" on their service updates page. https://www.diamondbuses.com/news/servic...july-2020/ |

They'll be starting a social media debate with some people saying all of Greater Manchester is Manchester, others saying Eccles is in Salford and Salford is separate from Manchester and others saying Eccles is a Lancashire town, not part of the city of Salford or Manchester.

On that topic, must let Sky Sports know the Old Trafford cricket ground is in Salford! |

I thought it was on Talbot Road, Stretford in the borough of Trafford, right next to Old Trafford Metrolink stop. I'm pretty sure the boundary between Trafford and Salford is the River Irwell, which puts The Imperial War Museum and new Coronation Street set in Trafford, while The Lowry and BBC Dock House are in Salford. The joke when Man City moved to the City of Manchester stadium was there's one Premiership club in the city of Manchester as the other is in Trafford. |

Stagecoach have confirmed that it's got a Manchester postcode. Sorry for getting it wrong! |

Driver said he terminated a 163 at Bury and ran empty to the Trafford Centre. So although Bolton based must know the route. --- Thanks Ant Check out my YouTube Channel updated regularly at 18:00 Most Days; https://www.youtube.com/c/apdmediatransp...nel/videos Check out my content on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter/albums Updated recently with a trip down to the South Coast in 2021 & Railway Pictures from 2017. |
