From my own observations over the last few weeks the fleet seems to be;

Solo: 660 700 701 703 706 708 709 711
Cadet: 2490 2492 2499 2501 2544
Centro: 2619
Pulsar: 2656 2930 2931 2932 2933 2934 2950 2951 3159 3160 3161
DB250: 4163 4164
Enviro400: 4402 4403 4404 4405 4406 4407 4421 4422
Strata: 4701 4703 4704 4706 4708

The Stratas seem to have been more active in the last week or so, previously the 6 route in Crewe was worked by 2 Solos but one and sometimes both workings are now Stratas.
I dont know if this is connected to the disappearance of the 2 DB250s as Ive not seen either of them around Crewe for about 2 weeks.

I've been told by drivers that deckers can no longer be used on the 38 to Macc as the bus also works the 10 from Macc to Bollington, which is not suitable for deckers. They've also say that quite a few drivers have left & gone to D&G because of the attitude of the managers at winsford, who they say are 'aggressive' & blame the drivers for everything that goes wrong.
