Which ones are on loan to Manchester? Did I read somewhere that some went in the opposite direction? Which ones were those?

As far as I know, 12091 is the only one to come to Manchester from Yorkshire, and 12118 is the only Hybrid that has gone the other way. I think the idea is to compare the differences between the different types in Yorkshire's environment, as they have had a few problems and they need to find out why things have gone wrong. It's a temporary swap, though I don't know how long for.
There are some Enviro400's that have gone to Yorkshire. This is to cover for the hybrids that broke down. I presume once it's all sorted they will one day return.
