First Manchester
RE: First Manchester
Regarding the closing of Dukinfield depot. Does anyone know if the depot is owned or just rented by First? They used to also use a large yard opposite but I don't think this has been used for a while.

Volvo B10BLE/ Wright Renown 60405 X699ADK was working the 135 today, anybody know if it's a loan or transfer? Definitely interesting to say the least!

Surely they would take a B9 of another route and put the B10 on that instead? I can imagine how cramped the bus must had been

60405 is actually a Bolton bus as of this year.

As Raawwwrrr said, its a Bolton one but id be a bit angry if a B7RLE turned up and it was packed!

RE: First Manchester
60405 is by far the best B10BLE left with First Manchester so in that respect Bury have got a good deal

60405 was a great bus when at Wigan depot it was second only to T845MAK in my opinion after the R-YNC's/SBA's left
