That's what I mean, the 184 branding could have been taken off again to make way for Enviro400's possibly. I'm not promising that though because I've got my heart set on them being for the 81-83 fingers crossed, and if there's any left over the 425 too! (But like that's ever going to happen...) Can I ask if anyone knows anything about this timetable change and route change of the 425? I was thinking possibly rerouting it so that it does the evening circular of Fitton Hill 100% of the time which would shave some time off the journey, bringing the frequency back up to 6 per hour. Also, maybe they're making the route skip the bus station again, as it used to do. It would also save a lot of the time and most people get off at the Tommyfield Market stops anyway, as it's quicker to walk to Cheapside than being driven right around it to go to West Street. Even then King Street is only a short walk away, and since it takes anything between 1 and 5 minutes to call at West Street (which is effectively up to around 8 minutes per round trip) that could solve some timing issues. Either way that frequency needs to be pulled back up to scratch, and since First only brand services every 10 minutes or better in Greater Manchester, maybe this is will lead to the big relaunch of the route! (Bahahahahaha....) Thanks, Liam Moskwin. ![]() http://www.flickr.com/photos/transportandtreasures/ |
