Stagecoach Manchester and Wigan

RE: Stagecoach Manchester
I was in east London yesterday and saw a few Stagecoach Manchester vehicles there. Those I noted were 19245, 19247, 19427, 19469, 19490, 19496, 36416 and 36418. I saw several new 10000 Enviro400s but am not sure which if any are due here in Manchester. What was amusing is that, whereas they are supposed to have no company branding, at least 19245/47 still had "in Manchester" while 19427 had just "in Man" left!

BTW I'm not sure whether 19427 is a Manchester machine but I've mentioned it here just in case.

All the Olympians should be off by the end of the week.

Newcastle's vehicles all due to be back home by Wednesday.

RE: Stagecoach Manchester
So it's the end of an era for the Olympians.
Will any of them be kept for preservation?

when do the games buses start coming home also do you have 19445 in Manchester it is on my fleet list as expected

I think 19445 ended up going to London. There were a few Newcastle buses that were scheduled to go to London and ended up staying in Manchester, and another couple that sneaked off down South when no-one was looking
