RE: First Manchester
Was a bit surprised to see 37374 heading into Manchester along Higher Cambridge Street this morning on the 99, until I realised that they operate the 0815 weekday journey from Whalley Range High School to Manchester and wasn't a case of a First bus operating a Finglands service. OFT website still has a expected decision date of 27 January (next Monday), so not long to go (in theory) until we find out whether the First/Finglands takeover is cleared http://www.oft.gov.uk/OFTwork/mergers/Me...s8GkfRNRni |

Found photos on Flickr of 40336 being repainted into the new livery with the interior also adopting the new colour rails. http://www.flickr.com/photos/46868364@N04/12056386114/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/46868364@N04/12056387984/ |

RE: First Manchester
Does anybody know why P510 LND is still in service despite being now 17 years old? |

RE: First Manchester
Cause it moves and it costs less to keep it alive than to buy a new bus. Come on first still use X and Y reg solos, R reg darts and bury have a few very old deckers |

RE: First Manchester
40336 now out in service in the Oldham area. Spotted it myself today on the 410/411 service and looks quite smart now in the new livery: http://www.flickr.com/photos/91519071@N05/12102524295/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/91519071@N05/12102545065/ |
