I received what can only be described as a very interesting reply directly from the Operations Manager at Stagecoach in Lincoln this morning.
Aside from confirming that 22174 has obviously entered service, the Ops Manager has also revealed, that his Depot is awaiting a further 8 of these (MAN) vehicles from Sunderland.
This is surprising, given their age & of course the issue of DDA compliancy.
That's interesting, wonder if these are to replace their oldest MAN's? - not sure on Lincoln's fleet though!
