It is. I believe 10042 is covering it at Stockport. |

RE: Stagecoach Manchester
Noticed today on a couple of buses a new style for the text on the destination display for the 250 to the Trafford Centre, which makes it clearer to read. Is this a test or will they start rolling it out onto other services too? |

All the 76's have it, even the ones that are not the new ones, as well as the new 12 Reg Euro 6 at Stockport, and I keep noticing odd buses, mainly Hyde Road based Enviro400's changing to the new text. It is a lot easier to read and hopefully it will eventually feature on all buses. |

I think there's been a couple more movements now. 22132 MAN has gone to Sharston, meaning some more 84's have gone to MAN operation, and 19524 has moved from Stockport to Hyde Road. It was on the 74 tonight. |

Newer deckers will be presumably sourced, all those at Workington that where withdrawn except for two where too old for TfGM contract work. So presumably it awaits the availablity of 17648-17650, 17698-17699, 18281-18291, 18293 all of which will be removed from Magic's next spring/summer by ex London ALX400's that can be used on commercial work but not on TfGM tendered services. |
