Irrelevant which bloody search engine you used
We don't need to know that you've searched for something that has already been answered
There's a lot of bitching goes on on this forum, so I might as well join in.
It all started because somebody put something on Flickr and couldn't be arsed to put on a title, a description or any tags.
It might be at Kirkby but that's not specifically stated, just that the journey involved Kirkby.  But which Kirkby?  Kirkby Lonsdale, Kirkby Stephen, Kirkby in Merseyside, Kirkbymoorside, Kirkby-in-Ashfield?
FFS, don't we all know that the Lady Lever Gallery is in Port Sunlight so it's likely to be the Kirkby near there?
A clear and simple statement of the bus operator, number and location would have removed all doubt and prevented me haven't a rant about the bitching.

If the bus looked like this excellent creation by Garry Luck evokes an era when you could identify a city by it's buses!

Yes, always worth a visit for me, I usually cop a few "London" coaches. Stratford can vary though as on my next visit I might  only log twenty vehicles as opposed to the sixty or so I logged in two hour period on this visit. Always newer vehicles about, but the highlight for me of this visit was a one-owner "02" plate vehicle - Toyota/Caetano Mini-bus BD02RWW operated by Williams [ Angela's ] of Witney. 15 years with one owner, still in all over white as the photo's on Flickr show and not , as far as I am aware ever having been "re-registered" !  ;D

It's a pity that I don't have any "coach-magnets" near me.  You're very lucky to have Stratford.
