and had 33673 on route 8 http://flic.kr/p/dbX7mk
33657 on route 37 http://flic.kr/p/dbX8Tw
I notice the neat allocation of these!!!!!!
Do we know yet which ones will be going to each depot yet?
neat allocation what a laugh 33656/63/68 are at Oldham hope they see sense and neat these up at both depots
Just seen MX55 FHF drive out of the paintshop at Bolton. Think that is 66931 from Wigan if i'm not mistaken!!!!
Enviro 33678 is another one parked up at Bolton.
Enviro 33738 running on the X84 this afternoon. Real contrast to the Olympians that were regularly used during the summer.

Indeed it is! It's not been in service at Bryn for ages (well I've not seen it for ages now anyway). Correct me if I'm wrong, however I'm sure that it was in a bit of an accident near that railway bridge near to the BP petrol station going out of Wigan on the way that the 600/1 and 610 routes go! :P There was a news article with a photograph about it, and I've not seen 66931 since then, hence why I assume that it was in the accident.
Who ever debranded 33657 at Bolton did a very poor job of it, as the panels are very marked and discoloured from where the shuttle stickers were

A long time ago, 66931 lived at Bury
Had a ride on two great buses and one poor bus today
69171 freshly repainted being driven like noddy was in the cab on the 582s
Wigan Dart 40387 sounds a little knackered
And another good wigan bus is 66878 on X34

could this be a loan as it is 81/81A branded but then again this is firstbus we are talking about
66846 I'am thinking could yes be a loan, but there is more movement on citaros being moved to Oldham for keeps
Reported at Oldham Depot are Citaro's
60234 and 60228, could possibly be there for keeps, as the movements are starting to happen gradually now BN has enviros in service
Considering the many rumors concerning 18 B9s Transferring to Pioneer
And the partial debranding and debranding of BY B9s 07 reg plates and moving in some OM B9S 09 Plates to Bury.
Todays very mixed 471 allocation interested me of bendis B7s and Old scanias with 37392 08 plate B9 thrown into the mix. Like what are they doing with the 07 plate B9s i wonder whats going on ? :-)
