RE: First Manchester
37395 is another B9 repaint at Bolton although it was difficult to identify it as it has no fleetumbers!

69525 is the last of the 11 reg B7s to be seen by myself.

RE: First Manchester
Can anyone tell me if Manchester Depot still has any B9s on loan from Bolton Depot

[Damien]

RE: First Manchester
Is 37381 an Oldham bus still, or is it pioneer based?. I am asking as I know it has pioneer legals, but is operating Oldham Services.

Damien, 40402 is still in service, on 562 to Withins.

The Scania's are out again, 60172 on the 519 and 60183 on the 533 - looks like First have won the tender to operate the service after de-registering it commercially. And 60161 was on the 501, which was my bus home. :-)

Eclipse Urbans - 66891 is another loan / transfer to Bolton, also on the 501 and 69201 has been repainted and is back in service, on the 575, but missing fleetname and 'flying f' vinyls.

Thanks John
