I've seen it on the 118 (I think) either Sunday or Monday.

I have only seen 19165 and 19180 with 141 branding so far - does anyone know the identity of the other three?

On the Period 5 fleetcard as for disposal

One of 19417's rear windows lost a fight with a van with me on board. The idiot parked his van on the corner of Roman Road and Westminster Road in Failsworth, the bus driver didn't go wide enough and clipped the vans wing mirror snapped it off and shattered the window, we just heard a pop and saw it break and told the driver.

Luckily a 74 appeared a few mins later so we go to Manchester on time. The negative is that with only one bus capacity wasn't reached by Briscoe lane with about 10 disappointed people at each stop.

Regarding Stagecoach's extension of 330 to Airport has anyone heard anything about High Peak withdrawing their 199 from Airpot and only running it to/from Stockport-Buxton and that 330 will be replacing the Stockport-Airport section?
