Buses

 

 

Articulated vehicles are not new to the streets of Nottingham, since the 58 route to Arnold is mainly run with these articulated buses

 

 

Investment in buses continues, as evidenced by many new vehicles on 04 plates

 

 

 

 

 

Protest Posters

 

 

Not everyone loves the trams. These posters appeared in the windows of a number of houses where the Noel Street and Radford road sections separate, with a fair amount of squealing wheels and vibration over the crossing.

 

 

 

This sign was diplayed in a house window by the Noel Street station
