RE: Arriva North West - Wythenshawe Depot
Apart from the two X OBN ALX200s branded for the Stretford Metrolink service which might still be there i am not 100% sure, all other ALX200s are no longer in Manchester the R reg ones are withdrawn and the other two X OBN reg ones are at St Helens

2622 is operating on the 263 into Altrincham. Are 2621-2623 programmed transfers or are they here in response to First Manchester moving into Rusholme?

Speaking from personal experience having travelled on it into Manchester, probably not suitable for Arriva to have a Dart (2244) on the 263 during the afternoon peak period.

Looks like the DAF DB250 Presedents have gone here:

4167 (LJ51 DLD) seen on service 247

4165 seen out of service

4163 looks also to be on 247
