Stagecoach management will not like two identical service numbers , reckon in the not to distant future one of the service will become a different number like 174 , 274 etc .

Could see the Hollinwood-Manchester 74 being re-numbered to 76A or 78A or re-number the whole 74 service to 78 and either then re-route it via around Scotland Hall Road or leave that section of the route to the 77.

Although, having said that, Stagecoach did operate two 390s (Glossop and Stockport-Poynton) until recently when the Stockport 390 was partly replaced by the 372, albeit a TfGM decision.
