RE: Stagecoach Manchester and Wigan
Whoever decided Stagecoach's allocations today obviously wanted to mix things up: Enviro400 MMC on the 143 arriving at Piccadilly Gardens at same time as Magic Bus Enviro400 leaves Piccadilly Gardens on the 256 followed by E400H leaving Piccadilly Gardens on the 38 at same time as 38-branded Enviro400 arriving on the 42.

I've been reliably informed that one of the former Middleton Enviro300's is currently working on 201/203's. It was spotted at lunch time loading in hyde bus station heading towards Hattersley. |

It would be much better on a low loading route like 38, 76 or "short" 192s, though. Presumably if it's 'in use' it could appear (and probably will) on any HE service. |

Confusing sight today : a 50 running at 0510 this morning. Timing would make it the 0505 from east didsbury. Is it not a bank holiday service today?? |

It's not shown to run on tfgms timetable or the planner. Stagecoaches own timetable for the 50 is horrendously/bizarrely over complicated, with this one journey having a slightly different code to the rest! I suspect somehow it's slipped all the way through the net to a running board. That said, it did have a passenger, so I could be wrong. |

How many of the 192 branded buses are on loan at Hyde Rd at the moment? I seem to see the same ones quite a few times[particularly 12187,12217 and12219] although I have also had rides on 12180 and 12198 the odd time. |
