More about this scene
Carriages await the call to duty in the old Market Place; it was here that B Goodall & Co, bus and carriage proprietors, had their office, though we do not know if the vehicles seen here all belonged to them. Though most people would have taken the train to Manchester, a Goodall carriage hired to take 3-4 persons would have cost about 9s for the trip. If required to wait and then bring the clients back to Altrincham, it would be charged out by the hour.
