The issue with picking up on route is if a bus is full then that option cannot happen hence why it’s just the 2 locations served.
That is also true, & if the buses behind the bus that's full, are also full, then passenger(s) could have a long wait for the first bus that has spare capacity, which would be very annoying if passenger(s) only have a day ticket for the festival, meaning a late arrival at the site too.
Would have thought the B7s which have been parked up for a while would have been candidates for the CF shuttle. They must be doomed now even though it appears a couple have made it out today covering for Enviro400s ?
There is a big PVR Reduction over the Summer, They will be back out soon
A few of the B7s have made the odd appearance over the summer but they've been rare.
If anything at Speke needs to go, I'd suggest it's the Commanders. They're knackered and far too small.
It looked like 4124 was out on the 79 today as well
Have Runcorn transferred their Commanders transferred over to Speke? I've noticed 2575 and 2584 are now here, not sure about any others though.
4490 was out on the 81 today looking very smart with its white indicators at the front and full orange display on the rear,
Now that the 699 is back and running B7s and Commanders are back in service in sizeable numbers on all of thr Depots routes.
Anyone have any information on events on Allerton Road around noon today (certainly 11.45 - 12.15). 75 &76 were using Woolton Road from Church Road through to Cromptons Lane. Really strange to see the number of buses in that stretch.
