what double deckers do high peak operate? Just this one. Rest are single deckers, midibuses and minibuses. |

AFAIK the Transpeak service is limited stop around Stockport and this is/was the only double decker operated by High Peak. Without knowing what went on, like most people, I'd guess that this was a driver taking an alternative route (on a section of the route with no stops(?). Having seen a link from another forum, the bridge is clearly marked - maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=george's+road+stockport&ll=53.412835,-2.168201&spn=0.001151,0.008256&client=safari&hnear=George's+Rd,+Stockport+SK4+1DN,+United+Kingdom&gl=uk&t=h&z=18&layer=c&cbll=53.412834,-2.1682&panoid=3iwysw6UeVJu7TtOtNi7lQ&cbp=11,208.21,,0,-2.11 - but if you work for a company that only has one single decker then... Certainly, AFAICS, no blame attached to the company here (however much people want to bash Wellglade) |

Certainly, AFAICS, no blame attached to the company here (however much people want to bash Wellglade) Very true, whilst they are far from my Favourite operator there can be no blame attached to them over this incident. The driver of any vehicle is the only one who makes a decision to go or not to go based on information seen. The bridge markings are clear and a decker handles very differently to a saloon so the old "I forgot I was in a decker" routine is no more than hogwash. Wellglades involvement with High Peak is, as far as I know minimal, with operational matters falling to the much more professional Centrebus team, hence the recent turn round in the fortunes of the transpeak service. |
