Although route 300 was lost to Arriva at the start of last week, some Solos such as 47786 are still at Stockport.

I would think quite soon they would cover the whole service. MAN's are being brought back into service now and being used on the 11 and 11A, which was predominately 59 reg ALX300s, presumably to free up the 300's for this purpose. Stockport are having to give up a lot of their double deckers to Hyde Road and Ashton now, as most of Hyde Road's routes cannot cope with just single deckers, and Ashton have had to switch the 347 to double decker as their ALX300s head to London.

are they transfers on loans to Hyde Rd and Ashton

The Olympics do not go on for ever so why should they be transfers?
