People still think of Middleton as the dump of Manchester, what they don't realise is how much investment it has seen since the Darts and Evolutions were lost for the Enviro200's. The poor mess of a yard has been completely resurfaced which has improved bodywork massively, while a new wash has been installed and is used regularly, the garage itself has been resurfaced in parts while the side storage shed has been completely dug out and had two inspection pits put in, exauhst extraction and lighting have been fitted, and the offices refurbished to incorporate more office rooms. New buses are only a part in the chain of investment....

Thats not true, commuting that way twice a day every day at different times, it's not uncommon to have to stand, even Sundays, Moston to Manchester gets very busy, and although they might not fill a decker regularly, a lot of trips regularly fill the 200's
