The last night of bus operations from Cleveland Road Garage, Wolverhampton, 1993
Saturday, 30th October 1993 was the last night that West Midlands Travel operated services from their Cleveland Road Garage in Wolverhampton, As of the 1st November 1993, all operations were transfered to other garages, but with the majorty of services going to the sister garage in Park Lane, Fallings Park, Wolverhampton.
The picture shows hoards of Metrobuses that have come off service that evening and await transfer to Park Lane Garage. Along the back row are 2489, 2498, 2266, 2778 and 3092. The photo pre-dates the Metrobus MK2 rebuilds at Marshalls of Cambridge, and therefore they still have their original unrebuilt backends, complete with oversized rear lower saloon windows.
Today, the bus garage still stands, but is used as a covered car park, so access it still possible.
