RE: First Manchester
Interesting addition to OM Depot is a at least one Marshall Dart seen today on 24/181/182 group of services, not sure which one it is but an interesting addition none the less, makes me wonder if what I heard yesterday is true in that this could be an ex South Yorkshire example as I'm led to believe a batch could be on their way over shortly |

RE: First Manchester
Sure I saw an Oldham B7RLE operating on the 33 this morning. Didn't catch the fleetnumber but it looked like the Oldham depot sticker on the side. Also noticed this on Flickr (although yet to spot it), 37451 has been re-painted into Rochdale colours, although seen on the 83. 37430 has been re-painted into Lancashire United colours and operating on the 36. http://www.flickr.com/photos/70966383@N03/9653820115/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/25878623@N02/9653250107/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/25878623@N02/9653248971/ |

RE: First Manchester
Marshall Darts? Is that some kind of joke? They get rid of Plaxton Darts and Scanias for those sheds? They should have been driven straight to the scrapyard. The Rochdale livery looks good, although not many Gemini's operate there. The 409 is an Enviro400 and the 6 operates with B7/Citaro. |

RE: First Manchester
Sounds like there's been an accident involving a man being hit by a bus on the 64 service this evening in Oldham. http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/n...er-5831008 |
