Also from what I got told today regarding the incident involving a Dennis Dart near Oldham Mumps, drivers had reported problems with the vehicle a number of times recently as apparently its reverse gear doesn't work hence why it couldn't be shifted, and only in the past couple of weeks it was allocated to a duty on 64s which for the uninitiated involves a reverse in Middleton Bus Station, apparently a driver had loaded the passengers and went to reverse out of the stand then realised that he didn't have reverse so the passengers ended up on the next following service

Would make sense, as I know 49118 is Queens Road's and I did always think Queens Road should do it, I know the hybrids at Bury all two of them, have been incredibly troublesome. Its more there area cheetham hill NMGH etc. Come to think of it being in Bury every day as I am. I don't remember seeing the By Hybrids of late
