RE: Stagecoach Manchester
When the pair of orange GM liveried Enviro400s visited the transport museum a while back 1 of the hyde rd drivers told me their likely getting withdrawn in the new year.

Mid to end of january was what he reckoned, however both being kept on as driver training vehicles.

Training buses will be in ‘heritage’ liveries from next year in a similar style to GNW.

No chance they'll get scrapped. Don't know about both but one has had a brand new engine and both have been internally refurbished

North Western liveried 19407 has left the fleet, and been transferred to Stagecoach South East in the last day or so. Also, Stagecoach stripes liveried 19001 is leaving Devon for Manchester, for preservation (presume the Museum of Transport) however may see very brief use in Manchester (19398 has transferred to Devon in replacement)

Towards the end of next week apparently. It's only meant to be out as 'cameo' before withdrawal so won't likely be about much.

Can't see it tracking anywhere at the moment.

While it's not a special working, if it's of interest I notice D&G's Enviro in North Western Road Car livery is operating 88 journeys between Altrincham and Macclesfield today. It should be on the 12:45 and 16:45 departures from Altrincham.

19001 had been out earlier but the heritage buses have been called back to HE for a photo call, then heading back out after that.
