Graffiti at Abandoned Finglands Coachways Manchester 

Five years after purchasing the bus operations of Finglands Coachways, First Greater Manchester is set to rationalise its operations in South Manchester. As well as pulling out of the 42 route to East Didsbury, their Rusholme depot will be closed.

Since Finglands Coachways’ arrival, the Rusholme garage has seen continuous use since 1907. Following First Greater Manchester’s purchase of Finglands’ bus operations in January 2014, the company leased the depot though didn’t own any buses. Its 100 bus operation staff became First Greater Manchester employees.
