Outside the Streetlife Museum of Transport.

This delightful vintage bus was ferrying visitors from Hull’s Paragon Interchange to the Streetlife Museum of Transport on Saturday. I didn’t take advantage of the lift to the Victorian Christmas event, taking place in the Museum Quarter, because (as regular readers will know) I like to stroll around Hull when ever possible.

Leaving the Paragon Interchange.

Later in the day I spotted the bus again leaving the Paragon Interchange, the combined centre of operations for the city’s bus and rail services.

At the traffic lights.

The pedestrian crossing linking the Paragon Interchange to the St. Stephen’s Shopping Centre is a regular trap for departing buses and I just happened to be at the pedestrian crossing when the bus was leaving (a perfect instance of being in the right place at the right time).

Where has it gone?

The photograph of this spot I posted here Photo Archive: “It’s A Grown Up World!”, Tricycle, Streetlife Museum of Transport, Hull, May 2010 clearly shows a tricycle and now its gone! The tricycle was one of my favourite exhibits at the Streetlife Museum of Transport, so I hope it hasn’t gone far; could it have been stolen by particularly audacious bike thieves?!
