I saw 12108 on route 192 on New Year's Day. I know it's an HE machine for routes 197 and 219, but it felt like the shape of things to come on route 192! I reckon all Stagecoach routes that day were from HE.

It could be helpful on January 27th to have route 42a run from Stagecoach. It will make up for route 197 being another operator (Finglands) and MegaRiders not being valid then.

I am probably going to Wigan in a couple of weeks so will sample the Stagecoachisation work in progress there. It is good that MegaRiders will be valid without a price increase to reflect this extension to the SM network.

I wasn't about on New Years day but a good friend informed me that Hybrids were out on 330's and 216's from Ashton - as well as the usual 219. Were all the services on New Years day and indeed boxing day operated with Hybrids? or was it just the way they were interworked.
