I recall drivers had issues with the GHA Gold Enviros because the tinted glass reflected internal light when driving on unlit sections of road at night.
You would but it was D&G that fitted the screens during COVID so not a manufacturer fault.

I didn't realise D&G added them and then removed them, they've only just started being regular vehicles on the 88. Although, like I said in a previous post I wouldn't be surprised if buses ordered for the Isle of Man didn't have them fitted.

106 looked to have been loaned to High Peak. It's back with D&G today and being used on the 88/89, returning to a route it used to be a regular on a few years back.

The Handforth Dean Free Bus has started tracking again. At one point it was looking like certain villages weren't being used, as the same bus could end up on the Free Bus for a number of days.

Been confirmed that D&G are registering their replacements for the 31, 37 and 84 routes. The specifics of that, apparently timetables will be on the D&G website within the next few days.

Hopefully to the same timetables otherwise their going to have a lot of confused & very pissed off passengers to deal with.

Lets see what sort of vehicles they obtain for these routes especially the 84 , it will have to be a decent capacity vehicle .

It is rumored that High Peak are supposedly getting rid of their Citaroes so I'm wondering whether any of them will end up transferring to D&G and be used on the former Winsford Routes.
I've said elsewhere that their going to need decent capacity vehicles and not Solos or small Enviro200s.

Word going about at the moment is & a driver mate of mine at D&G says they are apparently getting 15 extra vehicles from somewhere within the centrebus fleets.
RE: D&G Bus - knutstransport - 03/03/2023 14:26
Have D&G started running the 312? Nothing seems to be tracking on it.
