Amazing how well the B9s and Arrow performs on the 393, takes the traffic calming measures on Smallshaw Lane a lot better than the Solos, as they don't actually hit the bollards 53149 was on 348s/350s today wish they would sort them selfs out i heard 37386 on it again normal routes think 31929 is on borrowed time 40382 has disppared leaving 40403 the last of its type still going |

RE: First Manchester
Can I just state something please the eclipse 2s have gone into service to get them used to service and up to speed. And as extras in the run up to Christmas, they are expected to go into Rusholme subject to oft clearance but for now, going to work in Oldham Qs Bolton Bury and Ashton. Just because they haven't been sighted yet doesn't mean it's not true at all. There is more than one source to back up allocations. All the information I post on here is entirely accurate and comes from reliable sources every time. |

RE: First Manchester
So Ashton has some Eclipse 2s? Almost certainly means that they will be on 38/39, 331/3/393 routes which should be quite interesting.... |
