RE: First Manchester
What is the reason incidentally for these two odd balls, would it now have made sense to move these to another fleet and order two more Enviro Enviro400's instead for later delivery, considering plenty must be still parked up as only one was seen on depot at Bolton yesterday everything else was B9TL. In terms of spares all this seems a nightmare. Obviously the two B9TL's have been put at Bolton because there are common body penels with the BD11 registered B7RLE's, but when it all adds up together would it now be simpler to have made Oldham entirely Enviro Enviro400 and cascaded the Volvo's out to Bolton to add to teh ones already there or other depots?

Incidentally all the Dart SLF's there had been piled into the withdrawal section of the yard, in the elcove so all look withdrawn.

As for Wigan that all remaisn unclear as to what will happen there. However I am suprised the Volvo B9TL's havcen't been moved out to Manchester along with the total services 32 and X34 and evening 33's and the staff who operate them regularly.
