Their little gem livered enviro 200 was in stockport today, presumably route learning. Although I’d have thought the route would be ideal for their small minibuses (subject to the required capacity on tender)

Well it was rumoured the baby Solos which Selwyns put on the route did not meet the capacity requirements of the previous contract. I think they were 22 seater and the requirement was for vehicles with 23/25 seats and there were comments about the Selwyns baby Solos getting crowded at times.

I think everyone accepts that with social distancing capacity is reduced and should be reversed for those who need to travel, opposed to just anyone who turns up and wants to travel.

SF09EEP has moved only a few miles after being bought by Nexus Move after an ebay sale and is a fairly regular sight on 356 between Oldham and Ashton

So what operator name do the tickets have on them? I notice the GGG (Part of Go Goodwins Group) on the side of the bus but it's not very prominent.

Also do we know what the capacity of these buses are? From a photo it's not very clear which length Enviro they've ordered.
