RE: Stagecoach Manchester
Realistically they probably only have until the end of 2016 due to the DDA deadline and their non-compliance. |

Not sure which one it is but one of Middleton Depot's Centro's was out on 77s today sounding quite rough, the exhaust was blowing and whistling as it went along, I've had a day in today and instantly knew when it was passing the house |

It wouldn't move as the driver tried to pull away. I was on it at the time, hoping to travel on it along with quite a lot of other people Later on when I returned to Piccadilly about 6.40pm, it was still there. |

That's the Centro I was on about ace, I did wonder how long it would last before it eventually gave up, personally if I was one of the drivers I would have phoned the depot and requested a changeover as the way it sounded all day yesterday it couldn't have been healthy for it to be out in that state, knowing Stagecoach though I'm guessing something will replace it in the short-term while its fixed |

Is there a complete Stagecoach Manchester fleet list knocking around anywhere? Also is there a list of any Bluebird vehicles that got retired when Stagecoach bought the business. I assume most are now in Stagecoach livery as I haven't seen the Bluebird livery for months on the road. |

RE: Stagecoach Manchester
freewebs.com/nwbus for a fleetlist. As none of the Bluebird vehicles have yet been disposed, they should all be still on the above list. |

RE: Stagecoach Manchester
Ok what I don't understand is that many Bluebird routes are being operated with Stagecoach ALX300 like 22402, the fleetlist shows many non-Bluebird buses based at Middleton. What happened to the buses that used to operate those routes? Are extra buses needed for re-paint? Have some been transferred out? |

RE: Stagecoach Manchester
Middleton's allocation is slightly enlarged due to repaint cover, but as mic posted above, 11 Bluebird vehicles have been withdrawn. |
