I don't think its practical for it in such a congested city and needing charging at regular intervals , where as the Electric Enviro 200MMCs can run for (i think) 18 hours straight |

The electric versas? I think that run the metroshuttle routes are really smart, although I don't get with the tip up seats in the disabled are why they don't fold up again is odd. They seem really nippy & pretty quick off the mark for an electric bus although the gearboxes do seem a bit jerky in city centre stop/start traffic. |

RE: First Manchester
Bolton depot have agreed the revised deal and have called on the remaining strikes this month. However, Rusholme depot have rejected the new offer and will go on strike again on Monday. Services 41 and 42 (East Didsbury-Manchester) will not run but service 53 will run from Queens Road depot. https://www.firstgroup.com/greater-manch...ign=strike |
