RE: D&G Bus
I'm presuming Macc don't have fitters who can repair destination displays. 122 is running around without a working front one, while I've seen 129 a few times with it's rear display blank. |

In Newcastle-under-Lyme I saw Evoras as expected on route 9, but also on routes 1/1a which I didn't know had also received them. Maybe D&G see enough of a future in the Potteries to be willing to stay in the area, speculating on First eventually pulling out? |

RE: D&G Bus
To give my itin with D&G, I shall clarify that I caught a Northern train to Crewe (331 107) then trams home from Wythenshawe (3046 then 3066), and caught D&G buses as follows :- 85 Newcastle-under-Lyme - Streetlite 55 94 Congleton - MetroCity 165 42 Crewe - Solo SR 3015 38 Macclesfield - Evora 6015 130 Wythenshawe - Solo SR 165 |

RE: D&G Bus
A solo on the 42 is rare, but 3015 has tracked on it twice last week. Yeah D&G have "Orange 1" Evoras now. The Enviro 200s and Solos have moved to other routes. 113 has the new D&G livery and has moved to Macclesfield, despite it's age and D&G normally not rushing to do any repaints. A couple of years ago there were two Orange 1 Solos operating in Cheshire, and it was months before they got repainted. |
