Apparently it caused a major headache round Manchester Airport as this was the diversion due to the closure of M56, I did hear that traffic was at or near gridlock due to the closure as traffic was getting to Hale Road and having to turn round and come back

Alexander Dennis Enviro 200 registered KX08HME in all white livery operating on Stockport Metroshuttle 300 on last Saturday afternoon (2/08/14).

It's a Dawson's Rental vehicle so presumably confirms how Wythenshawe are substituting for their accident damaged Pulsars.

Plus there metro shuttle livered optare solo is at dt helens depot for work done on it too.


RE: Arriva North West - Wythenshawe Depot - M60lad - 06/08/2014 06:55

Anyone wondering whether these Dawson Rental vehicles will appear on any other Arriva services while the Pulsars are off well the answer is no they won't as from the timetable change in Manchester last week the Stockport Metroshuttle is now operated by MCT Travel and not Arriva anymore hence why the Metroshuttle liveried Solos are now at St Helens having work done to them

4063 has been the only DLA at Wythenshawe for several months now. However they have the 9 DLPs 4161-9. Do they see service at present now that the 16 has gone - four or five per day were regulars on that route? Or are they being readied for schools in September?
