Only 2614 has been used at St Helens

Unfortunately for winsford most of the centros are still here! St helens are welcome to them, cheaply built horrid buggers they are.

What they desperately need is an interior refresh as they're looking very scruffy plus they'll need bodywork attention as most are starting to show signs of rust.

No as i beleive its suppose to be some pulsars from green lane if anything as they are having enough problems with 2614.

Ah right that explains it then I wonder if the Centros that we do have here in St Helens will end up going then if they are having lots of problems with 2614

The 1825 Macc - East Didsbury 'Sapphire' 130 tonight is certainly making passengers journeys sparkle, with Strata Van 4704 working it.

Somebody's sleeping in a Travellodge tonight or are all the rooms taken up for Tory conference. Appalling allocation!

Knew this would happen at some point - wonder if it made to Manchester earlier in the day?

What do they do if a wheelchair passenger wants to board a Strata at Macc bus station? Even when the bus pulls as far forward as it can part of the door is blocked off by the stand railings.

If a Strata appears on a 130 on Sunday it could be reported to Cheshire East council for not meeting the minimum 25 seats which the contract requires.

Nice sight today seeing sapphire branded 4410 working the 130 duty.

As an aside 894 still seems to be soldiering on at crewe.
