There is 1 Plaxton Centro here alongside 3 Eclipses. The interiors of the Eclipses look remarkably similar to Network Warrington examples.

Hi all
Daft question time. What routes do Diamond bus operate in the Manchester aria, and where would be the best place to go to see a good quantity of vehicles in service?


RE: Diamond Bus North West - T42 PVM - 08/04/2018 10:36

Is there a certain type of Bus you want to see?

Why don't you just use the Diamond Bus tracker? You can see what bus is where / when it's due to arrive etc. It's generally accurate other than for new arrivals or loans, drivers can sometimes use different fleetnumbers to actual vehicles

No, just trying to get an overview of operations to find the best spotting locations
