D&G Bus

Surely the answer to that partly depends on which Versas D&G are planning to move, given they aren't all identical. Presumably it'll be the ones with the T reg plates that aren't branded for any particular routes but I don't think that's been confirmed. Versas don't have wheels right at the very front, like Solos do, so that should help with handling.

GHA didn't have any major issues with Versas on the 88 when they used them as the regular buses for over 5 years. However, they didn't add in the Wilmslow station to the route until the Enviro 200s were introduced. Although, I recall for the first couple of weeks of the 88 route being 'Gold' one of the Versas remained on the route alongside 3 of the brand new Enviro 200s, then they didn't appear again after the fourth new Enviro was introduced.

The SRs are shown as having moved in the opposite direction.

I was aware of that, as far as I can see the transfers from Adderley Green have never been reported here by fleetnumber.

RE: D&G Bus
It sounds like they are in the processing of swapping over, even though the fleet list has been updated, asonly one Versa has been reported as moving and SRs, which are moving the other way, were still operating Cheshire services today.

Saw a 64 reg Enviro 200 on the 82 with no branding earlier. Not sure if that one was the one which never had 82 branding, or whether one of the others has been debranded.

Also noticed an increasing number of D&G Buses are getting adverts on them.

The unbranded one, 30, was on 288s. One of the branded ones has had it removed, not sure which one. 31 is wanted for inspection tomorrow so will likely lose its branding. SRs 104 and 106 are still at Wincham.

On the 82 again today. One of the other two buses is a plain red Enviro 200 again.
