Look What I Found






I just finished work and noticed we have driver training next week on the new Enviro 200s. Then when i went outsie look what i found. it looks a nicer bus than i first thought. Can't wait to have a go. I have had to touch the pics up slightly but im sure you get the idea.

  1. These are low floor buses so hopefully they will use them to replace the MANs on a lot of routes!

    How many of these new single decker buses is Ashton getting?

  2. I wonder why you all need driver training.

    The inside of the cab looks exactly the same as on the Enviro double deckers

  3. Not replacing the man buses, They are replacing the Darts. The man buses are bigger.

    The training is just vehicle Familiarisation. So we dont just on the bus in Ashton bus station adn dont know the wipers from the saloon lights that sort of thing. Covers the company too when we go under low bridges because we get told the high, length and width of the bus at the same time and how to use the ramps etc etc. The dash layout is the new one so we have not seen it yet.

  4. ah...I guess that means that you have to familiarise yourself with Newer Euro 5 ADL 400's when you get them (If as well)...So is it just Marshall darts going or all of the darts (Plaxton, Dennis and ALX versions etc)

  5. All darts apart from the 4 04 plates are going. The new enviro is the same size so we don't need vf on them. I believe all them have gone to stockport anyway.

  6. That Enviro 200 will be 36100. There are 19 of them and as you say, all for Stockport.
