Oops

Something just doesn't look right with this 216 in Piccadilly yesterday. Not put my finger on it but something seems a little different. Been a crazy couple of days. The works at droylsden are causing us all sorts of issues for the 216s and 7s. Today was made worse because city were playing a home game so the traffic was worse than ever with some buses taking over an hour to get from Piccadilly to Ashton. I really wished they would hurry up with this stupid tram rubbish. Back Monday in Ashton again for more fun and games.

  2. I saw the rear number display on 22131 upside down when it was on the 345 few days ago, First bus have done the same mistake before.

    heard that the 397 service from Hyde to Glossop have been sadly withdrawn tonight!

  4. You do get the Man buses on the 216 sometimes. Not as agile or as swift as the newer buses though. So it really doesnt help.

  5. When i used to go up ashton alot i found singles slightly faster but got filled way to quick so doubles are a must and i like sitting up top.

  8. Ive seen 33098 come out of the Ashton depot a few day ago, has Ashton got that back from Stockport?
    and ive also seen the odd scania bus on the 217/8 service, usually I see them out on the 345 or on the staff taxi
