Yes that was the plan, to replace the Arrows in the summer, though after this week's events with schools they've had to hurry things along a little, so are now running Enviro400's on school routes.
I am presuming for now, any Tridents that move will be on standby to cover shortages caused by this.

Ok thanks for explaining.

Anybody know from which depot they've moved from?
Also the plans for London tridents coming up here are still on as far as I'm aware but we will be gaining new tridents! C:

The 'new' tridents are for Magic routes unless that has now changed.

Why are Magic Bus getting newer Tridents? Haven't all the Olympians gone?

The Olympians have now gone, but the majority of the MagicBus fleet isn't DDA certified (but is DIPTAC compliant), so is due to be replaced.

They are loan buses from Reserve, to cover the services previously run by Maytree.
The 2215? would be 22151 I believe.

Had a run pass the depot at Bryn earlier, having not been for a couple of months.
Sadly once again, it was looking more like a scrapyard then a bus depot, with a large number of dilapidated first livered buses littering the yard. The sooner Stagecoach can dispose of these the better. God only knows what the passengers must think.

Not sure I understand, do you mean older Enviro400s being cascaded onto Magicbus routes or older Trident-ALX 400s, if so from where?

RE: Stagecoach Manchester
The question I was responding to was asking why MagicBus was getting London tridents. Therefore I'd say its pretty obvious that it won't be Enviro400s going blue for some time.
