RE: Arriva North West - Wythenshawe Depot
Hope they don't try putting one on the 08:15 Altrincham to Manchester Airport 288. Even with a long Enviro 200 that service barely fits everyone on and the 2 or 3 passengers with suitcases can have difficulty finding somewhere to put them. |

I have a feeling they will end up on there albeit it would be absolutely daft! --- Thanks Ant Check out my YouTube Channel updated regularly at 18:00 Most Days; https://www.youtube.com/c/apdmediatransp...nel/videos Check out my content on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter https://www.flickr.com/photos/envirohunter/albums Updated recently with a trip down to the South Coast in 2021 & Railway Pictures from 2017. |

With TfGM now saying Arriva are taking over the Altrincham locals and only the evening and Sunday 288s are going to Arriva, it now makes more sense that the Mellors are transferring to Wythenshawe. I'm not saying those services will be ideal for the vehicles but it probably won't be any worse than Macclesfield and Northwich locals getting them. |

The 285/286 pass my window, so I'll report as soon as I see anything in service. |

Is Wythenshawe getting anything else? As they'll need a few more vehicles to operate 18 Eccles/Trafford Centre-Airport service if their not getting the TfGM hybrids that Diamond currently use on there. |

Well, don't forget the 19 is being reduced to half-hourly instead of every 20 minutes, so that will free up 1, 2 or even 3 buses at most. |
