Only time will tell.
Seen to-day in Sale painted up in Goodwin's livery.
A2B in Birkenhead have a YJ60 solo on loan and was on service 811 earlier this Everning

I think it is WSV551 - correct me if I am wrong.
Rings a bell i got a very blurry photo probably not worth posting
Solo YJ55YHR in all white livery seen this afternoon in Sale on route 252 to Partington.
Solo YN53NDV operating on service 14 in Altrincham today in what looks like an Arriva livery but in Goodwin colours on the front. I think this vehicle used to be operated by PC Coaches of Lincoln whose livery is light green not aquamarine what I saw today.
Can anyone throw any light on this?
Also the solo I mentioned on an earlier blog in all white livery was operating route 266 yesterday in Sale.
I think the answer is yes but are Goodwins using GMPTE's Ticketer smart ticket machines now? Thanks in advance.

Quite possibly yes as both MCT and Stotts have recently started using these too.
I'm sure I rasa somewhere that as part of the TFGM smart card programm all companies operating on tendered services must have their vehicles carrying visable fleetnumbers, but apart from the big operators and Bullocks I've seen no evidence of this yet - how true is it?
