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

These could be becoming more common now. I saw and rode 4491 on route 130 yesterday.

Today there's been a swap round again as gemini 4490 is on the bollington circuit & pulsar 3159 on the crewe duty.

Macc are going to need to do some bodywork repairs on the pulsars as 2933 has got a load of dents & dings which makes it look right scruffy.

4106, 4162 and 4490 all out on the 130 today.

Mega stuff, that's bloody rare to get 3 deckers out on the 130 in a day.

What I'd really love to see is VLW 4216 get a few duties on there. It'd look mint cruising round piccadilly gardens.

Deckers on the 130? That's a sight! It can barely fill a single decker in Alderley Edge at peak times!

Presumably because of the rail strike.

Indeed. Rail tickets were being accepted on bus services operated by Arriva so it would be surprising if the services which continued to Manchester didn't get extra passengers yesterday.

That makes more sense Laugh they would be a sight if there was nothing wrong on the railway!

New liveried 2951 was on the 84 yesterday.

Sapphire Manchester to Macclesfield branded vehicle on the Northwich to Sandbach service yesterday.
