Had a few staff on board. Not sure whether there is any significance of a Diamond bus travelling in an area where they current don't operate.

Training buses tend to go wherever when training learner drivers. They will not learn routes until they have passed PCV tests. I actually seen one of the First training vehicles travelling through Reddish last week and thats out of area for them.

Oldham could also be on a test route that is covered on the test. Its just like a car test, bus driving examiners have set routes that they take in.
