Yes, the destination blinds fitted to the Lowlanders, YJ05 PXD, and the Presidents (If they're still there) don't seem to be able to show a desination without a route, hence 27 Selwyns. They also show text only in all capitals.
As for where the photo was taken looking at the location I'm guessig not to far from Selwyn's Sharston Depot

It was taken practically outside the depot, on Bradnor road.
Anybody got a timetable for the stockport service? Seen as it'll be starting on the 1st & actually running by the 3rd slightly worrying they've not sorted it yet.

TfGM have the timetable here, it's the Cheshire East one, which is also on the Cheshire East site

The timetable has been only the Cheshire East website for a few weeks. Cheshire East have also distributed printed copies to timetables to libraries and information centres on the route in the past week. TfGM only put new timetables on their website a few days before a change and remove the old one in the process, as has been mentioned before.
Can anyone provide the fleet numbers for the 2 17 plate Yutong TC9s and the recently acquired Solo's & Gemini 2s?
2 mini optare solos have been out today on the macclesfield - stockport duties.
Very smartly turned out YJ12 GZG & YJ12 GZH.

I can confirm that I "snapped" it on the 1306 depature from Hazel Grove Rail heading to Stockport

Love how smart these look and it's awesome to see them now starting to do passenger services again, something not done since they took over Haytons and handed TfGM back their contracts. They also seem to be using Ticketer machines for payment and smart cards, do we know if these are the TfGM supported ones for the Get Me There scheme.
