RE: First Manchester
First were living up to their normal standards tonight on the 83. A bus arrived into Manchester with 83 Sholver displayed and stopped just short of stand A on Oldham Street to drop passengers up. Then once all passengers had got off, instead of driving down to the stand to pick up passengers, he decided to just to drive off, leaving everybody to pile on the next bus (a 180 double decker). Left about two minutes late, so obviously decided to set off empty to run on time rather than pick up passengers and run late. |

RE: First Manchester
37288 and 289 are both repainted - I wonder if they will receive branding similar to ours! |

RE: First Manchester
Does anyone know what's going on with 31938? I've not seen it in service in Wigan for ages now, but it's still at the depot apparently! :P |

I have heard that it was once used on the Mecca Bingo service one Sunday or Bank Holiday Monday. The numbering for the branded services are a bit jumbled up now. Only the old 180/184 branded buses seem to have stayed grouped together (37382 in new livery but no branding yet). From recollection, 37441 and 37443 are branded for the 58/59, while 37442 is branded for the 180/184. |

May seem that way occasionally, but their allocation generally is quite well done. Can't imagine they are that easily distinguished by staff who wouldn't look twice usually, and for them to be on the 184 about 90% of the time, I think they do an alright job ![]() |
