Usually a Smiths of Marple bus appears here at this time

Looks fresh from the paintshop.
No stagecoach decals, legals, fleet numbers. A faulty side LED display

Benzo its one of two ALX Darts acquired by Smiths for use on school services in Glossop.
R150CRW is now in Smiths smart livery of white and blue while R153CRW is being used in full Stagecoach livery with fleetnames removed. Both have working front LED destination displays.
Not sure what's happened to the very elderly Olympian's which I haven't seen since the end of summer term in July, these two Darts and coaches now work Glossopdale college although the ex Arriva double and single decker's make odd appearance's.

As neither of these Darts have ever worked for Stagecoach Manchester apologies to those who are slightly confused
