33741 was sighted on 184s around 10 days or so ago

While the Wright Crusader Darts have spent most of their life working out of Oldham Depot and a brief spell operating out of both Wigan & Bolton Depots over the years lets not forget all that time ago when they were new that some of them were allocated to Bury Depot and were used on 468 Heywood-Bury service

BN B9 37429 is another repaint but again without fleetnumbers. Got a feeling that all the ones without fleetnumbers have been done at Blackburn. Could be mistaken though.

That just leaves 37402/19 at BN to be done although I'm presuming they have or are being done this week. Not bad going to repaint 53 of them considering they started this batch in June and had a break to start on the B7RLEs.

RE: First Manchester
Noticed a little flaw on the Enviros this evening, which is that it's not easy to get the ticket from the machine because the gap in the 'glass' partition isn't high enough. Saw quite a few people struggle to get their tickets while on the 184 out of Manchester.
