been on 40422 today Pioneer have a good one there
Was wondering why 350s have been sat waiting at the West Street bus station or on West Street itself for about 10 mins or so before it's due to leave.
Is 40430 a Pioneer bus? As I saw it on the 408 this afternoon (couldn't see legals as I was on the other side) and I know there was some suggestion that the 408 was going back to Tameside depot.
All Wright bodied Darts apart from 40422 are based at Oldham
Just noticed the TfGM website is down, how odd.

408 is an Oldham service in daytime

I suspect that the website may have a new look soon, particularly when the bus timetables have undergone a makeover. For the last month or so, a lot of the links had "/pages/" in the URL, so I'm suspecting that a temporary website has been set-up while a new one is being tested.

Ah I see, thanks for the fast reply from both of you

I've thought the same thing - the whole publication aspect has undergone a redesign, not just the timetables (which I think look cheap and nasty now). The bus station departure posters have been redesigned too, for example... unfortunately the website being down means I cannot link to an example!

All due to either move to Wigan or Bolton, this hasn't been sealed apparently, but it's likely these will leave Bury soon
And 34294 stays in service at Bury for now
Scanias are replacing the darts so I am told
I was convinced that I saw 60217 at Bolton on Sunday but it was too far away to confirm. Will keep my eyes peeled this week.
60214 and 60212 /60217 524 today still Bury based but moving imminently, interesting that drivers are saying thats the last time,ill drive that bus. It looks as though nearly all of Bury's scanias are going as part of the darts replacement.
Am I right that the R SBAs for Oldham will be from Manchester Depot?
