From the amount of ex-GTL darts regaining dot matrix displays, am I correct in thinking that the North West is due some newer darts?

I haven't seen mentioned on here and I apologise if it all ready has been, but its mentioned in the current BUSES mag that two 10.7m Enviro200 darts have been ordered for Fleetwood, for the 86/89, following contract renewal.

-------

Also as a side note, just had an Enviro400 pass my house working the 150 in place of the usual Solo. Its the biggest and most definitely the oddest bus i've seen on the route ever.

I really can't take any credit for starting this thread - that has to go to everyone who contributes!

Well done all!

I would hope that when 36184/5 (I think that's the correct numbers, Gez knows) arrive, 47001/2 will go to Lillyhall and replace 34079 and 42025.

hopefully not! how many people are partying hard if it has seen the end? :lol: :lol: :lol:
i've heard Manchester are having a few service changes in a few months, reducing the overall PVR a little bit, which should see a few extra vehicles leave there. not sure what they could be for now, but hopefully, if they're decent, North West may have a chance of seeing something! at least 1 route is rumoured to be moving to decker operation from MAN, with a reduced frequency.

Mmmmmm so maybe more MANs will become available or they may shuffle some Olys off Magic Bus :) Would hope that we see something, as I don't think we will see anything that's cascaded by the E400H's.
