How well used actually is that through ticket offering though?

Those machines have been removed now, apart from the cash ones for which Manchester Airport is the only station on the network to retain cash (the rest going over eventually to Promise to Pay) last I recall they were meant to be installed at the same time as the others but the cash model hadn’t...

Perhaps a halfway house is for journeys Off-Peak to continue to run into the City Centre and provide the connections, whilst peak start/terminate at Shudehill? Traffic congestion within the City Centre is completely unacceptable at times which really does need looking at by the City Council...

If you have booked through Avanti then it is set up to “Any Card“ collection anyway so this wouldn’t be a problem. I can’t speak for C2C

The lounges are supposed to be receiving new lavazza coffee machines, Manchester FCL has already received their. Sadly yes, the Uglies are gone.

Avanti TVMs have accepted £50 notes from the outset.

I've just had a whopper 0.96p delivered to my PayPal after submitting a 30 minute delay with EMR yesterday so top marks for the speed of that one.

Of course, however a post on Facebook lead me to have a look on Bustimes to confirm if it was still out. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/LenCYmaCAzwD89qm/

Are Stagecoach struggling for vehicle availability? Noticed a Solo has been on the 41 today: https://bustimes.org/vehicles/bnsm-48104?date=2024-04-08 Not exactly the most appropriate vehicle for that route, I seem to recall that it's happened before with GNW pre franchising also.

Bang on, fix is in the works from PICO backend now Squills have completed their work.

It'll be RARS related then (reservation system) a fix is in the works soon from the supplier.
