I wonder if the extra buses leaving OM are B9s or just more B7RLEs. if the latter, it would tend to suggest they intend running the 41 primarily with single-deckers, but I think its slightly risky at busy times and it may lose them brownie points with the more knowledgable Eco-brigade Students. Rusholme were consistently putting nothing but 4 year old buses along the University corridor, whilst Stagecoach's fleet looks more and more like a third world operation by the week.

Barely any students will use the 41 southbound. The percentage that do between west didsbury and Sale is very small. Most students have stagecoach uniriders as the first services are less frequent and start and end earlier than their rival.
