FLY2 10,109 Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 Did the 1A leave from Hanley St too. I remember occasionally getting it to Bobbers Mill, but I think it was a very infrequent service. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
katyjay 5,091 Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 I don't ever remember an A after the number 1 bus, but I stopped riding the Hanley St buses after I married in 68. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,109 Posted April 13, 2017 Report Share Posted April 13, 2017 This would be mid to late 50's. Maybe early 60's, as I moved to Wollaton in 63. It may have run as an extra. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jill Sparrow 10,335 Posted April 14, 2017 Report Share Posted April 14, 2017 I remember catching the bus from Hanley Street to Bobbers Mill for a short time in the 60s but this was because there were alterations going on to where we normally caught it. It might have been around the time Maid Marian Way was being finished because the terminus then moved there, although we could also catch certain buses from Long Row, outside Pearsons.

FLY2 10,109 Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 Re #31. I've just had a flash of inspiration, and reckon that it could be a 16A , maybe not a 1A. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jill Sparrow 10,335 Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 If it went to Bobbers Mill, it would have been 16, FLY. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,109 Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 I think it carried on to Aspley, but I'm certain that there was one route with an A. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
catfan 14,793 Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 16A Same route as the 16 until Strelley Road then continued a long Coventry Lane / Bilborough Road terminated this side of Balloon Woods. Services 1, 7, & 22 terminated at Hanley Street. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cliff Ton 10,494 Posted April 29, 2017 Report Share Posted April 29, 2017 In the early 50s, these were the routes in that area. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
