Macc are definitely having a play about it would seem, pulsars have been on the 38 again but the oddest 1 is a pulsar appearing on the bollington circuit.

Macc Route 10 now regularly has a 130 branded Pulsar allocated to it.
2930 performing it yesterday (28/02).
That was joined by 38 branded Gemini 4491 !!
Making it a Sapphire route for most of the day.

Surprised to learn that the X29 is to get council funding -- I don't know of any other limited stop service to get council funding!

Will X29 be operated by Arriva? I've seen it mentioned as a new service on the Cheshire West website but they don't say who the operator will be.

Although with a Friday and Saturday evening service I'm more likely to use it if it's a fast service taking 30 minutes than an all-stops indirect route service taking 50 minutes.
