I know they've aquired at least 2 ex London Plaxton SLFs as I saw them parked up against the fence when I walked past their depot along the canal tow-path last Sunday, can't remember reg's I'm afraid though

RE: JPT Bus Company
Another ex CMT/Stagecoach Merseyside Wright Liberator entered service with JPT yesterday a their 433, this was running round yesterday with hymm numbers in the windscreen as unfortunately
due to a shortage of vehicle it was rush out into service.

Another addition to the fleet is a Caetano Nimbus Dennis Dart, not sure of the reg unfortunately

Hired in Enviro 200 was out yesterday on 17 shorts between Middleton-Manchester Shudehill

Also East Lancs Dart S3JPT is back on the road after receiving a new gearbox and new engine and apparently is quite a pocket rocket

Apparently the 2 Plaxton SLF Darts that I reported on recently are away at the moment being converted to single door and extra seats fitted

RE: JPT Bus Company
Any perticular reason for the vehicle shortage?

Is the East Lancs Scania still on the road, not seen it myself for a while?

RE: JPT Bus Company
The last time I saw the East Lancs Maxi Scania it was parked up at the back of the Depot against the fence, shame really as it was a cracking vehicle

Sorry bit extreme, my point remains, the management are stupid, how do they expect to grow a customer base if they register and cancle the same service over and over. .. give up on the 17...

Fair enough but I would just ask to think about the words used carefully as there is a wide range of people posting and viewing so could cause some offence. Thanks.

I do agree in part.
I wouldn't be surprised if they have gained a tender somewhere so need to free up some vehicles.
Whats the betting that come March/April next year theirs another registration for them on the 17.

I always forget to check in when im in Manchester but how do JPT fair on the 112/113 services against Stagecoach?
Presumably Stagecoach feel no real threat as they are yet to 'turn up the heat' although they could be playing the waiting game.
