(10 Aug 2016, 8:10 am)PO51WNF wrote Stagecoach 17014 - 11:34 599 to Grasmere - after a photo stop outside Windermere station (does not count as a bus station ) we caught this open top Trident to Grasmere, and what a beast it was! We started the journey upstairs but decided to move downstairs to avoid getting hypothermia (despite being August it was freezing).
Wimps!
It started raining when I did that route the other week and I remained in the open top part of the bus for that journey despite getting a little wet.Peed you's got the Olympian on the 78, I got a crappy ex London Trident with a very loud shaking grabrail. Think it's been on the 508 a lot recently.
I'd like to do the Lakes again in the next few weeks but travelling from where I live is a pain, getting to/from Newcastle early enough is a challenge.
