Oh dear that didn't last long.
I think ST were hoping to be rid of the older Darts and they have come back again.

Regarding 345 Stagecoach do the Mon-Sat daytime journeys with First doing evening and allday Sunday journeys and First's journeys are quite often operated using one of the TFGM Hybrid's, hope that helps clears things up.

An interesting one to watch out for from timetable change on 26 January will be the possibility of double deckers appearing on Stagecoach journeys on 247 as like the current Arriva daytime operation these tendered journeys will only be operating between Trafford Centre-Altrincham so there will be no need to worry about an low-bridges on the route

33099/100 are the larger darts, so have probably gone back as MAN replacements.

m60 this is wrong the m-f first journeys @ 1650/1753 are booked as hybrid (ex stockport duties) and the rest (eve and sundays) are standard sd buses usually solos or occ marshall sheds eve / sundays rosters are 38 - 353/4 - 345- 41 -38

The odd workings have already started.....

I've just spotted a MAN on the 169 heading towards Ashton. First time in a while, if not ever I've seen a MAN work the 168/169.

Well if you used capital letters and punctuated your sentences properly I wouldn't have a problem trying to interpret them!
