All of the 31 Enviro's, along with the 30 (?) transferred buses should replace all of the Excel's, Dart's and B10BLE's. DAF Spectra's 13995/6 are supposedly going to be moving to Wigan too until the summer.

Went on 13995 the other day-it sounded surprisingly good.

What route was it on? Haven't seen it in service for months.

What livery was it in? First or Stagecoach?

If First, could be a transfer from Bolton, if Stagecoach, could be from virtually anywhere

Ah, it could be one of the two from Stockport. They were used a lot on the 192's but the hybrids are imminent so they may be 'clearing the decks'. Does MX58FSD or FSE spring to mind?

Im not sure to be honest!!! I was told by a member of engineering that its to go on Runshaw due to the complaints about cold buses and breakdowns!
