RE: Stagecoach Manchester and Wigan
On the face of it, it seems odd that there are some 24 reg Bee Network spec Enviro400-MMCs at Hyde Road and Stockport, while a few elderly Enviro400s have been repainted Bee Network yellow. I can only suppose it is TfGM wanting people to prepare for when remaining Stagecoach (and other southern services) join Bee Network next January. |

Of course we're all aware that Bustimes isn't totally accurate, especially when vehicles run on "borrowed" ticket machines, but I've encountered a new twist this week. I've moved into a new flat which is on the 11 route from Stockport to Altrincham. This week new deckers 11861/2 have been in use at various times (easily visible from my window), but neither vehicle appears in the Bustimes fleet list - and they're not on borrowed machines.They simply don't track AT ALL! Are they somehow operating without ticketing? |

There are some former Oxford Bus (Go-Ahead) Volvo B5LHs buses operating with Stagecoach on Bee Network routes. I have seen conflicting reports as to whether these are long-term (potentially leaded from TfGM) or just temporary. As Metroline are due to bring some of their Volvo B5LHs to Manchester from London, I would not be surprised to see these ex Oxfords land up with Metroline in Manchester next year. |
