Yes, that is the plan. Significant "58" stock is to leave this year.

Bolton's 2009 Pulsars likely heading for a Welsh twilight, but wait and see.

Recent transfers to Wythenshawe Depot are 362/575 Sapphire Branded Pulsars 2678, 2679 & 2681, not sure whether any more are due with Bolton closing after operations this coming Saturday.

What's replacing the 58 reg Pulsars here?

I tried replying to the post in the new buses thread about the Wythenshaw Pulsars due to move to Runcorn, St Helens and Southport, but got some problem about how it cannot display the page due to a firewall problem.

So, I shall comment here instead. I suppose they will replace older Pulsars there or nearby.

I rode Sapphire Pulsar 2998 on route 18 on Thursday.

Nice and comfortable, but a bit silly still having diagrams for routes 362 & 575.

A few buses there started alternating the digital display between route details and a Merry Christmas message!

Whats happening with the older Pulsars based at Wythenshawe depot in January when Tranche 3 kicks in.

Is Wythenshawe being emptied out today after service?

Yes it is, vehicles will arrive back, be fuelled then moved out to the respective depots there transferring too. This will also see Metroline move there fleet in. I believe the later is already taking place
