YJ11ENR - metroshuttle bus for oldham will apparently be used on the 178 following the end of the 400s existence,

Sounds like this will make sense as recently when I've seen 178 its been operated using MCT's own Hybrid Solo SR's

Some quick re-branding of the Oldham Metroshuttle, I imagine.

Sounds similar to when Stockport Council first launched their 300 service. They requested plain white vehicles although that soon changed.
I don't understand why when councils are slashing their budgets so much Rochdale want to waste some money on a free bus service. It's crazy.
No doubt MCT will be paid a pretty penny for running it!
