Does this Diamond Merc interwork or would it of just been spare.
Seems a weird allocation.
Few times a week now a step entrance decker appears on a Stanley service, is this because they are short ?
It was a spare and once again the 828 (East Stanley) had a single decker. (Occured last week with 4903 being allocated). The Olympian that operated the 143 used to interwork with scholars but now the only interworking done with scholars for St Bedes is the AM 822 which, as i have said many times interworks with the X70/X71. The Merc used tonight was also quite handy as it had the 'Get Around' advertisement and the picture to go with it is students from the school wearing the old uniform. A lot of the 828 regulars ended up going right to the front to get in 3823 which operated fellow-Stanley school bus 825.
