When is it 2018 orders get released? With these being 9 yr old buses and 8/9 yr old pulsars in the sapphire livery within the north west, surely these are due for withdrawal from their daily sapphire duties.
Just have to wait and see.

If the 2018/19 order is announced ("if" because the 2017/18 order wasn't) then it won't be until the new financial year which starts on April 1st 2018

To think I thought I wouldn’t see a Cadet around here again we now have 2496.

MX61AUM 3106 has been seen today, rather surprisingly, in new livery with new arriva logos. Seems a shock to quite a few as it was only seen recently in old livery, by myself and a few others too!

When I used it from Stretford to Trafford Centre in November 2016 I found it useful for being quicker than routes 22, 23 & 23a. I wonder whether anyone else will run such a direct service between these 2 points now.
Disclaimer: It was still route 22 in the area at the time in place of current route 25.

Today I saw a Sapphire Enviro 300 on route 18, with a Commander on route 263 instead.
