According the Skyscraper forum, the service starts tomorrow (Monday), will be numbered 400 and apparently operates every 30 mins. Not sure what times it'll run though or who will operate it. First will obviously be one choice, given their presence in the town, alternatives would be Stotts, Swans Travel, Bluebird or others.

As an Oldhamer, I will have to have a look at some point this week to see if I can spot it and find more information.

I heard from M 60 Lad that it had done, mainly because Bury were struggling with just the two solos, and there reliability, have to say. Allocation never went in Bury's favour when considering the 154s. I remember thinking at the time Queens Road should have got that, there depot seems better placed and equipped. Well as for the citaro, I had to find out which one it was on Flickr at OM and was surprised 60256 was the one
