Thanks for your valuable knowledge again Blakey, unfortunately it doesn't help us much with the film location as yet. Hi Leo, it's actually jogons bus here I was trying to identifyhttp://www.secretleeds.co.uk/forum/image.aspx?imageid=7059The ones I posted were only for comparison to see if they matched.
My flickr pictures are herehttp://www.flickr.com/photos/phill_dvsn/Because lunacy was the influence for an album. It goes without saying that an album about lunacy will breed a lunatics obsessions with an album - The Dark side of the moon!

I think bits of Manchester got used too. Due to the presence of the West Riding double decker it must surely be somewhere in the operating territory of that Company ?
There's nothing like keeping the past alive - it makes us relieved to reflect that any bad times have gone, and happy to relive all the joyful and fascinating experiences of our own and other folks' earlier days.

Sorry BIG N, but definitely not Wellington Street Coach Station by any stretch of the imagination - once again I don't think any West Riding vehicle ever ventured near Wellington Street

Cheers Phill. Sorry, my mistake. I like the sound of a jogon bus (presumably jogoff also ). Apologies to Jogon for that probably awful play on words of mine.

Here it is..http://www.leodis.org/display.aspx?reso ... AY=FULLThe search continues.
