Never did with my lot, I remember then trashing the seats and even putting windows through on Dennis Arrows.

The Enviro400s should not be operating schools, the Tridents transferred up from South West should be.

I thought that too, but I'm seeing Enviro400s operate the 657 St Edmund Arrowsmith/Byrchall High School - Ince Bar every day. This bus route is one of the roughest in Wigan.

17151, shown on the last fleetcard as being in Wigan, was operating in Stockport today.

22151 (S151 TRJ) has "Stagecoach in Manchester" above the door and driver's cab whereas every other MAN 18.220 has "Stagecoach in Wigan." Any ideas why?

Enviro400 filling in for one of the Magic Bus vehicles on the 143 this afternoon, while the old Magic Bus based at Middleton out on the 80.

17151 should be back at Stockport now that said Tridents have arrived from SW, it was only there to get the crappier Arrows off.

22151 has "in Manchester" fleetnames simply because the staff haven't removed them yet. It's hardly a high priority.

Can't help but wonder if Enviro400s are on the 657 for CCTV - I'm not sure any of the older stock is (yet) fitted.
