I guess D&G are switching machines a lot at the moment. Today 35 was tracking as 122, while both 130 and 131 were tracking as 131.
110 was tracking on the 89 route so may have moved up from Stoke, but as I didn't see it I can't confirm.

That is sensible, having all those routes use the new Crewe bus station.

The temporary one closed at 20.00 yesterday supposedly to allow the temporary one to be removed, although by 14.00 today you'd never know it had ever been there.
;
There is a very neat timetable display at the temporary stop in Prince Albert Street for its two days of glory!

I was going to make a comment about the information office which seems to involve knocking on an unmarked window, but in fact there is no mention of there being one on the Cheshire East website - I was sure I read about one somewhere.

Vehicle 504 was serviced at the weekend. D&G did a swap in Wilmslow yesterday to move it from the 312 to 88 (to return it back to Wincham). It broke down before running one complete journey, but was back in service again today and remained in service all day.*
*Subject to it not breaking down between Chelford and Wilmslow on it's final journey of the day.

Route 38 Crewe to Macclesfield will operate on Sundays from the 9th June. Seems to be two buses, every 90 minutes. Link to bus times below for the Sunday TT.

D&G also to run a Sunday service on the 12. A 130 Sunday service will be operated by High Peak, with D&G tickets accepted. Presumably D&G don't want to open Macclesfield depot on Sundays for 1 route?
RE: D&G Bus - 33109 - 21/05/2024 09:50
Also at current longton depot over in stoke are doing deep cleans on their vehicles so will make the passenger experience a lot nicer.
Plus all buses are steadily having the new stickers applied internally which look much more professional.

D&G now have a Centrebus design website.
It's showing that the 84X Sunday service and Handforth Dean Free Bus will both soon be withdrawn: https://www.dgbus.co.uk/bus-services/?region=Cheshire
