Now I'm happy - but isn't this the exact situation we had a few years back which ended with Helms pulling off the 23

No I'm not -yet again I'm one post behind a different thread. I can't keep pace with changes to this route! Maybe we need a separate thread just for the 22/X22 LOL

Service 77/77A will no longer operate to Woodside or via Lower Village (Heswall).

Adding onto that:

82/82A having a slight Timetable Change
144 Will no longer operate to Netherton
145 Withdrawn
441, 1 Morning trip Withdrawn
473, 1 Evening trip Withdrawn

So it looks like some of the alterations allow some vehicles to be released for the 22 , is it a case of rob peter to pay paul.
Why don't Avon drop the 82/82A and run the new 22 through to West Kirby, with a 22A variant running the Heswall to West Kirby 82A route - it would surely make it simpler for passengers after the initial change around?
Looking at the new 22 timetable, looks like this service will replace the current 80 between Newton and West Kirby
MCV 108 has been route branded for the 22, with 208 and 308 to follow
Back to no leg room on the 22 again then.
What type of seating is in these MCV's ?
22 route branded MCV 108 was out in service today on the 10, looking very smart after its repaint
Repainted MCV 208 was back out on the 83 today
