RE: First Manchester
Few odds and sods: Withdrawn 40337 & 40422 are parked outside the workshops at BN, not sure what for though. 40344 is parked in scarp corner with 40404 at BN. Visiting were 34102 from OM and 40382 from AN. 60071 has been parked in the same spot NFS for a week now. 37407 is still knocking around as was seen on a number 8 Loads of Training buses knocking around as well. |

RE: First Manchester
Looks like 31948 is a transfer from Ashton to Bolton, was on a 507 yesterday. The Arrows and Scanias are standing out like a sore thumbs in Bolton amongst the new Enviros, remaining repainted B9s and B7RLEs. B9s still knocking around include 37395/7/402/7/8/9/10/15/20/21. It had been reported that 37421 had gone to Bury but it was on a 582 yesterday. 37402 is the last B9 to have been repainted out of the 53 that were/are at BN. Looks like the majority of Darts have gone from Bolton with only 40000/352 being seen in service this week. |

RE: First Manchester
60234 was on the 149, I have a picture of it, unfortunately he'd just changed his destination display to Not in Service at Oldham Bus Station.

There will be 8 buses per hour between Oldham and Manchester as planned but between Oldham and Sholver, buses will run every 10 mins. 2 buses per hour will run Oldham-Manchester only. What a stupid move! That will mean there will have to be some large layover times in Oldham on some journeys, which is going to prove to be unpopular with passengers. |
