I'll try and give their commercial services a go from memory. Corrections and additions welcome! :-D

10/10A - Liverpool - St Helens/Parr
10B - Liverpool - Page Moss
10E ?
53 - Liverpool - Netherton
79 - Liverpool - Netherley (Caldway Drive)
79A - Liverpool - Netherley (Wood Lane)
80 - Liverpool - Speke or Garston (Banks Road)
82 - Liverpool - Garston (Speke Road)
86 - Liverpool - Garston (Speke Road)
284 - Liverpool - Crossens
321 - Liverpool - Lydiate
341/345 - Liverpool - Robbins Island

As regards the 10 corridor, CMT started doing the 10s in the mid 90's, then not long after the Arriva takeover of MTL, they switched to the 10A (possibly felt that the 10A would have been a bit crowded with 3 operators but once MTL/Arriva services were merged saw their chance).

Found this site via wayback machine aka web.archive.org good to see some old routes and maps for services

"CLACK! CLACK! CLACK!" faceful of black soot, cough, cough!

I remember CMT operating a Liverpool to Preston route on Sundays.
Also the Vauxhall Circular and,Speke Ciculars as Merseytravel routes all using Leyland Nationals.
That was around 1990 I think.

I remember CMT Buses operating the 51 (Woodside-Port Sunlight) and Merseytravel service 177 (Woodside-Heswall) on the Wirral.

I remember they used ex GM Atlanteans on these routes which I think was the only occasion they used deckers, everything else being single deck.

51 and 52 , 51 via Derby Road and 52 via Wirral Grammar School , going back via the other route to form a circle .
