Seems ashame AZ only gets one new vehicle but hopefully they should get some younger Enviro400's once the remaining E400H's have been delivered.

Best bets 22055/6 will remain at AZ. 22184/6/9 would go into reserve along with 22185 which had been put into reserve 3 months ago. Enviro400s 19164 and 19168 now at Ashton with possibility of more to come displacing the 56 reg Enviro400s

19165 is also at Ashton now. I have seen it on the 330's. Meanwhile 19087 has moved to Hyde Road.

Better not be. Seriously, that service can get extremely packed with only a 30 minute frequency to Ashton and 15 minute as far as littlemoss

I've seen either an Enviro200 or a MAN on an evening 231 in the past, could easilly end up on it

It's a real mystery.
Apparently last seen in the summer in Blackburn, not too sure why.

It's a shame because its a cracking bus. High back seating and very nippy when it gets going. Heating akways works as well.

Hybrid 12182 on the 383/384's rear right wheel making a horrible jarring sensation and sound when in motion.

Some of these newer Hybrids sound like that, definitely abnormal

Noticed that some of the 60 reg Hybrids have been fitted with WiFi now as they have a WiFi sticker on the front of the bus
