Later in the day it did an X50/250 as there were photos of it at the Trafford Centre bus station.

Obs from Monday in relation to various comments :
Stockport AM peak - The Town Centre was reasonably traffic free and moving, however 203/330 etc were suffering coming in from the east, with traffic very slowing moving into town, until about 0915 when it all miraculously cleared. The OT did the 203 from the Bus Station to MP, then the 192 short to Lloyd Road, returning to MP, but then running ECS via Stevenson Sq to gain the 216 pick up stop. Then up to Ashton for a meal relief. No idea what went on up there. Back to MP and then ran a 1500 return journey from MP on the 250 to the Trafford Centre and back. All fairly lightly loaded on the journeys I saw, except the 250 towards the TC, which was quite busy.
