Definitely brilliant to see them growing some more, a few people have speculated that their 130 may run to stockport instead of east didsbury.

With the information on VOSA currently being half complete (Start/End Points not currently added) I did wonder if it would be a like for like replacement for something different

Via the old 378 route or continuing on the 130 to the Cheadle area then going across towards Stockport?

Will they need to acquire some additional vehicles or move some between Adderley Green and 'Crewe'?

With the current shortage of vehicles I would say some would need to be acquired. There is now only 1 spare at Wincham and it is often unserviceable. Earlier this week a shunt car was VOR so the spare bus was the Knutsford shunt.

Pass, guess we'll just have to wait & see when they've officially registered it & the timetable is on their website.

However, stockport would be a good finishing point.

D&G's commercial service will be Macclesfield-Handforth only and will also be Mon-Fri only.
