Stagecoach Manchester and Wigan

RE: Stagecoach Manchester
Stockport had/has the ex-London Tridents. I'm not entirely convinced the transfer is directly attributable to Arrow reliability...

RE: Stagecoach Manchester
I agree that it cannot be a sole reason for it.

It still had stagecoach in manchester vinyks on it.

If it's V reg won't it be one of the original Manchester ones. I thought all the ex London sheds were X reg.
Only seems to be one Trident Active at AZ now so could it be that one?

Are the old Tridents for school services or something?

Yes that was the plan, to replace the Arrows in the summer, though after this week's events with schools they've had to hurry things along a little, so are now running Enviro400's on school routes.
I am presuming for now, any Tridents that move will be on standby to cover shortages caused by this.

So they've started to move them now. Amazing what a few Arrow breakdowns can do.

Anybody know from which depot they've moved from?
Also the plans for London tridents coming up here are still on as far as I'm aware but we will be gaining new tridents! C:

The 'new' tridents are for Magic routes unless that has now changed.

The one i seen on the 610 in wigan was a V*** MEV but was unable to catch the full reg or fleet number but still had "stagecoach in manchester" vinyls still on it.
