Its a win win up in the posher areas of the borough .
If the 80 and 82 are worked off the 38 what routes do 36314-19 work?
Would anyone to be help me out with what routes currently operate from Rock Ferry and what their PVRs are. Thanks in advance.

1 (Chester - Liverpool) - 11
2 (Chester - Liverpool) - 5
6 and 7 (Ellesmere Port Circulars) - 3
16/17 (Mill Park - Moreton) - 5
22 (Moreton - Chester) - 4
38 (Eastham - West Kirby) - 7 plus 1 for the 80/82
41/42 (Mill Park - Woodchurch) - 14
80 (West Kirby Circ) - Interworks with 38 and 82
82 (West Kirby - Greasby) - Interworks with 38 and 80
91 (Birkenhead - Holmlands Estate) - 1
471/472 (Heswall-Liverpool) - 6
X8 (07:58 from Liverpool - Chester. Runs onto 1 or 2 upon arrival at Chester)
Plus schools, 917/919 and Cammell Laird contracts (if they are still running)
Im sure 24155 was on the service 1 whilst i was eating a meal at Chimneys at Hooton Cross roads , just after leaving a Gold double decker was seen heading towards Chester at Hooton roundabout could this replace the standard single decker.
Just was curious, the 80 and 82 interwork right, the timing suggest an 80 waits 2 minutes then goes to an 82, which goes back to an 80 once returning to West Kirby ect. How on earth do they interwork with the 38? I’ve tried to figure it out how it is done. Or is it just a couple of morning journeys?

It confused me as well until I saw it on a duty board.
Basically, the bus does 38 Croft - West Kirby. 82 West Kirby - Greasby and return. 80 West Kirby - Newton. 38 West Kirby - Eastham.
It is very confusing. It is to reduce shunt vehicles and get driver changeovers much closer to the garage. It may just be a few buses which do this but it was certainly on the duty board that I saw.
There was a Gold decker on the 42 a bit earlier....15740 I think it was.
HTH
36820 (i think) has been painted purple for an all over autism awareness livery. However its out on the 41/42 today unbranded.
