Had thought most would've been replaced by newer vehicles but they seem in ok nick for now.

Don't forget that the bluebird operation is effectively now the Stagecoach Middleton depot where most of the former Bluebird vehicles operate from. Apart from re-surfacing the yard there's been little investment there compared to at the other Manchester depots. Cascades from other depots have meant that much of the Middleton fleet is now native Stagecoach vehicles but yes as you say a few (got to be single figure) Bluebird vehicles are still used.

The Solo SRs operate out of Stockport depot and what remains of the Evolutions (1 possibly 2) operate out of Ashton.
