15 minutes ago spotted what looked like the shape of a dart in the dark at Macc bus station

Currently the Macclesfield photographer for anything Arriva Macclesfield and Winsford, Arriva Wythenshawe, High Peaks, Aimees, Holmeswood, GHA and anything else I photograph

I can confirm as of today 3360 is still the oldest bus in service with ANW. It was alive and well with a fully functioning engine when I rode on it at lunchtime on the 37, and later on the 31 also. Of course it may not be by Monday, if the runcorn cascades arrive tomorrow. Other Olympians noted on 37 were 3311 and 3331, with 3334 on the 29B later in the day.

AFAIK, 3334 was on the 29B All day, Which is unusual as it's usually a MPD.
Must of 3360, Must of went bang due to a minor fault! Did the driver thrash 3360? Usually whjen they go really fast, It scraps (listen to 0:40 on this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DuGg_KXfI-s)
Also, 4040 Was on the 31A.

Really? I've heard they're due at Wythenshawe from a usually reliable source.

Justice is finally here. Rest In Peace the 96, You'll Never Walk Alone.

I've just been told this too, I'm lead to believe Wythenshawe than Winsford!

that makes more sense - more likely the olympians will get replaced by Birkenhead cascades later in the month.
