MCW Metro F809YLV has entered preservation joining fellow merseyside metro 0062 in the shed at kirkby
That is good news, those things leak like a sieve but still excellent, I look forward to hopefully seeing it in merseybus maroon one day.

Superb to have one of these preserved i remember riding them on the 89 in the 1990s.
MTL 0317 Gm Buses 5120 and MPTE Metro 0062 all made the trip to the midlands for Showbus. Unfortunately 0062 gained a problem with air so had to be taken to the Greenbus to be stored and repaired while the owner attended showbus. Now safely back at Hq, Big thanks go to the staff at the depot for allowing the bus to be stored there.
On a positive note Dennis Dart/Plaxton Pointer 7533 has now made her trip from an external storage location to hq after a new gearbox was sourced and fitted. Highly doubt she will attend wirral bus and tram as there is still a lot to be done
The NWVRT are pleased to announce on Boxing Day 2013, we will be running a heritage bus service on route 80 Liverpool City Centre to Garston. The service will be free to use but donations made will be to the Clatterbridge Cancer Charity and NWVRT. More details nearer the time and our services will feature in Merseytravel publicity and local press. Thanks to Merseytravel and Arriva for their support.
Halton Lynx H35HBG has returned back up North this week and is now safely tucked at Kirkby. She is privately owned but the owner doesnt want to be indetified
7533 went for MOT today and she passed along with 1055 so both vehicles will be out on Boxing day
