I know they've been gone a while now but when did the 3 OmniCity's that were regularly used on the 319 go back to D&G? |

Saw one of the T reg Wright bodied Scanias on the back of a tow wagon heading up St Helens road out of Ormskirk yesterday afternoon think it had been on the 319 and must have failed in Ormskirk bus station. |

There was a Floline on the EL1 Yesterday, hopefully it was not that Bus as Atherton is a long way to get a replacement Bus!

RE: South Lancs Travel
Does anyone know whether SLT will be getting additional vehicles for their Salford work? I only ask as when I was in Leigh on Monday afternoon about 15:10 I noticed a flat bed truck heading up Wigan Road towards Atherton direction with a Go London Streetlite on the back of it and was thinking (although could be wrong) that this could be one of the extra vehicles needed, if it wasn't for SLT where would it have been going |

RE: South Lancs Travel
Of these TfGM tender gains, route 71 is the most interesting, as it will give SLT their debut in Manchester city centre. |
