Also its been noted by a few passengers using the #392 at peak hours or even during the day when its kinda quiet that the solos aren't big enough for the route & feel cramped. I agree with this 50/50, yh it could do with bigger buses on the route as it can get mega wedged in the mornings, but its a real headache getting a longer bus round the likes of pott shrigley & higher poynton as its all single track windy lanes.

However approx 2/3 months ago we did have an optare excel which had been displaced from the 199 route working a 392. Must say, very decent buses these, would like to see one in the high peak orange blue n white livery would look proper smart.

The 39 was cancelled by High Peak as of last Sunday (30 November).
