Here again

Just back at hyde road for an hour or so today. There seems to be more tridents waiting to go in the paint shop to be made into magic buses i assume. I think they look pretty smart when they are freshly painted in the new magic livery. The 59 plate also in the picture is just here for steam clean not for repainting. Got a couple of trips on a 7 later, thats all today should be an easy day once i leave here lol.

  2. It's good to see the magic bus brand continuing with a low floor fleet... presumably more tridents and 300's.

    I wonder if an enviro would ever be turned into a magic bus lol

  4. Mic was the Speedwell Double Decker on the 343?, i saw it heading up towards Glossop yesterday with its blind set to 343, i just wondered if its doing a trip on that.

    I think theres two Hyde Road Volvo Olympians working on the 216 at the moment, probably down to the roadworks.

  7. Only saw one S49 on Sunday Mic as i was doing a late shift so wasn't in Ashton till after 5pm but the bus i saw had about 5 people on it, but its still early days. I notice First are still sending out Olympians on the 409.

    Saw the Dart on the S50 today being drivin by the big Speedwell boss himself. The new white Dart looks to have switched to the S48 now, although today a Vario was being used as well so would guess there was a breakdown or two.

  8. hope we don't get 34057. I hate that bus. We also seemed to have got 34081 too. I had it last night on the 7. 34054 seems to be the new taxi hence seeing it in mossley.
