RE: Stagecoach Manchester and Wigan
At least 3 Plaxton Darts in Bryn, anyone know what they’re doing there? (Sorry if I’ve missed anything!) |

I think they are in for store - I'm sure I read that all Darts at MCSL, bar 34797 as it is a training bus) are being withdrawn and sent to Wigan for storage buses7675 http://dartslf.com/ Light up, light up as if you have a choice,
Even if you cannot hear my voice. I'll be right beside you dear. |

Seem to be working solely on Hyde Road corridor routes and not the 42 as previously mentioned ordered for. --- Thanks Ant Check out my YouTube Channel updated regularly at 18:00 Most Days; https://www.youtube.com/c/apdmediatransp...nel/videos Check out my content on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter/albums Updated recently with a trip down to the South Coast in 2021 & Railway Pictures from 2017. |

RE: Stagecoach Manchester and Wigan
I’d hardly count 5 buses of a batch that have spent two days in service on Hyde Road as representative of the entire planned operation. |

Goes to show that we are poor with standards compared with other areas where branding and consistency is maintained to a high standard. I was in Sheffield yesterday and thought the work carried out on the Scania Enviro300s for the X6 Airport service looks absolutely superb! --- Thanks Ant Check out my YouTube Channel updated regularly at 18:00 Most Days; https://www.youtube.com/c/apdmediatransp...nel/videos Check out my content on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter/albums Updated recently with a trip down to the South Coast in 2021 & Railway Pictures from 2017. |

Stagecoach Middleton Depot Solo 47473 was out this afternoon on 172 service doing 15:37 Newton Heath-Southern Cemetery service and 17:04 return service back to Newton Heath. I saw it on its way back to depot tonight at about 18:30 heading up St Mary's Road. |

Magic buses complete with huge flat fare stickers in front windows have appeared on virtually every non magic service in Manchester over the last 6 weeks or so, where the advertised flat fare isn’t an option. It’s p##s poor. |
