Manchester Community Transport have acquired 3 double deckers from Ensign. Two Tridents X395NNO & V125MEV and an Olympian R115XNO. Im guessing they carn't all be converted to NHS Health Buses ![]() RE: Manchester Community Transport - jimbo - 02/09/2013 23:57 Hmm... ill see what I can find out off my mate at mct RE: Manchester Community Transport - M60lad - 03/09/2013 06:11 Ahh so they've actually arrived now then, these are actually for service as from what I got told by one of their drivers a couple of months ago MCT have having problems capacity wise on some of their evening tenders and have been leaving passengers behind so were looking into buying a batch of double deckers. If they do get used expect to see them in service on services such as evening 18s and 22s RE: Manchester Community Transport - jimbo - 03/09/2013 11:35 Hmm interesting... I was hoping for their first commercial route... I am actually disappointed.

Probably a case of the contract requiring double deckers so they had to have deckers to win the contract. Although I'm not sure why they have registered it on VOSA. It's technically a private hire as the kids won't be paying a fare when they board so why register it. No doubt when the contract ends they might jump in to school services.
