Numerous Euro 3 Enviro400s are also leaving/have left for Stagecoach West.

With the new EVs what is happening to the hybrid vehicles being replaced? Heard a rumour they were going into Magic Bus. Also, speculating, with the opening of the Trafford Centre Metrolink, I assume the PVR fir the X50 and 250 will reduce substantially and will this possibly free up drivers for any MCT worked that may be gained?

Magic Bus is being ridden of with the new Stagecoach look. The E400H’s have moved onto other routes allowing for Euro 4 Enviro400s to move to the likes of Ashton & Middleton to set up Euro 3 Enviro400s for cascade.

Thanks for info. Thought Magicbus could disappear along with gold and hybrid liveries.

There were pix of 14001, 14020 & 14028 on the previous page. In addition to 14020, I saw 14005 & 14019 yesterday. It might only take a few weeks for the rest of them to enter service.

Magic Bus is actually staying for now but will be modified into a new livery, confirmed by management from Stagecoach GM on twitter
