Stockport are getting 40 new hybrids for the 192 soon so that's probably where that's come from. This will herald the end of the MAN's and convert a few routes to Double Decker, presumably using the current 192 fleet.
I've also heard Stockport may be getting some more Solo's to replace the Darts. I don't know how true that is.

I all ready knew about 10042 to 51 the ones i am on about are the Hybirds for Stockport

It sounds like the hybrids may be imminent then. Initial reports suggested it would be the New Year when they arrived.
It sounds like there's going to be quite a reorganisation of the fleet in the next few months, with the Olympians, MAN's and 06 reg's leaving, and the arrival of the hybrids and new 12's.
The Olympians are gradually being withdrawn, presumably to be replaced with the ex London tridents currently on 168/169.
I wonder if Ashton will get any of the 192 59 reg's. It would be nice to see.
