so would that mean HE Lose its most recent Enviro 400s (76 Branded ones) or 76 Gets a downgrade to Old Enviro400s?

Well the 76's are fully branded so I guess you could piece that together yourself

Stagecoach have cancelled their Glossop 390 service and it's been re-registered with High Peak. Quite a loss for Stagecoach as they have done the 390 for years. I wonder of it's anything to do with Derbyshire county councils mighty axe freezing or reducing subsidies.

I believe it's because of loss of funding. :/

Pure speculation on my part but I'd imagine it'll stay at Ashton with non-DDA MPD 33174 withdrawn instead.
