    Fantastic. Points of note for me are the 3 lines as we cross the railway, instead of the now 2. The Vauxhall Cavalier Poice Car, and the lack of speed bumps!

    Look how quiet and clean the road were then compared to now 2019

      It was miles better back then.
      It's become too much like Rhyl now, even lost the market now.
      The old library where the beautiful tree overhanging the benches has also been demolished for characterless apartments thrown up in no time.
      Not the place I used to love to be honest

    It's 2024 and I drive that bus route almost daily, it's crazy how deserted the roads are.
    I passed my driving test in 1991 and don't really remember the roads being that quite.
    And it was strange seeing the abandon building by the duck pond at about the 10 minute mark, and looking at it now

    I've lived in Prestatyn for 16 years and I'm about to go to university! xD The only things I can remember are the quick Save and the factory that was in the high street xD

    I do not remember there being petrol stations in Prestatyn. I know that the one that was the Shell garage must have sold petrol at some time, because of the layout, but I do not remember the Peugeot garage selling petrol.
    It was not the L1 Coastliner, as that was a limited stop bus.

      It has more shops and its now modernised. Apart from that not much different to this video. It still has what I call the "photographic personality".

    Its weird that I can remember Prestatyn looking like this back in the 90s right down to the street lights. The only difference was the light by the bridge had a different modelled head on it.

    Not confident with that bus driver, he nearly mowed down that poor woman on the crossing, and speeding, it was like being on a bus with Lewis bloody Hamilton, I was clinging on for dear life just watching it from home on my bed where I am currently shielding?
