Depending on what os made redundant with the 25 January cuts - and these should *all* be single deckers of various capacities - I would expect the figure to be somewhat less than 30.

The direct link is an influx of new Vehicles at Sharston is allowing older vehicles they are replacing to be painted into Magic bus livey. The Hyde road loans are an interesting one but they seem in no rush to send them home. The cuts at Middleton and Stockport don't directly affect what's going on at Sharston.

From what I've been told they are looking to replace all the W reg Magic Tridents and some of the V reg ones in poorer condition but I suspect it's a case of wait and see.
