Out and about a bit earlier than usual this morning, to avoid the jams due to the closure of the Mancunian Way, I noted 36099 on the 77. Is it usual for single-deckers to be used on that service? I think that is the first one that I have seen.

Does anybody have a list of the new Enviro400s that have entered service so far please?

I was out early last Tuesday and saw a Enviro200 operating on the 77.

Thanks very much

Thank you for your list Pete. I see many 330s and use some for work. I saw 10590 today but have not yet seen the 2 preceeding ones. I plan to use one on route 216 in a couple of weeks and prefer my first one to be on a leisure day out rather than for work.

One was used for the 2.25 driver swap on the 183 on Friday, not sure which one.

Not sure if this is true but I was told recently that the 2:25 driver taxi for 183 actually comes off a 330 as the driver in question (good fried of mine) told me thats the only he'd get to drive one after I asked him whether we would actually see one on 183s.
