It’s possible Speke keeping it and some Commanders until their MOTs expire I’m surprised 2608 is still in use since it’s the only one at Speke

end of the day if its useable and still on the books then its in use, main reason the singles have returned was the 79s going back to full service meaning the deckers were needed on that route

I highly doubt the singles will stay for longer than needed, but for now they are needed
2608 still going strong yesterday on the 75 and a Commander
2584 on the 78 and 2586 on the 75 today

And today
Nowadays a single decker allocation on the 86/86A is rare owing that only a handful remain at Speke, 2608 is on the route today.

Managed to get a journey on it, It didn't sound too bad apart from an infrequent screeching sound from the back.

I think that you mean 4563
4685 was stuck on East Prescot Road in an abnormal position blocking all lanes of traffic when I happened to come across it when I was cycling on my way home earlier.

I'm not going to say much more out of respect for the driver + passengers, but it didn't seem like anybody was seriously hurt as the damage was limited to the lower back end of the bus.
