Cadet DK55 FXD (2519) is out on the 56/56A today. Strangely, it left Netherton at 07:07 on a 56A journey, despite displaying "Queen Square 56"... Confused

4431 is on the 56A this morning, seen it Liverpool Bound at the Rotunda at about 7.40.

X235 ANC (2235) - 62
(See the Green Lane thread for information on what X-ANCs have transferred with the 68.)

Unusual Sightings:
Marshall V667 DVU (7667) - 53
DAF/ALX400 T304 FGN (4064) - 53A
Plaxton Pointer 2 R569 ABA (7569) - 56A (this evening)
DAF/ALX400 S260 JUA (4090) - 58 (LOL)!
2235 and an unidentified Marshall - 62
Cadet CX07 CSO (2638) - 345 (on the duty that performs the evening Skelmersdale journey)

The 54 was in the hands of three ALX200s - X263 ANC (2263), X265 OBN (2265) and X268 OBN (2268) - and a Marshall - V626 DVU (7626). All featured manual destination equipment - surely a first?

One of the first 311's yesterday appeared to be a commander, did anyone else see that? Is that normal? Thanks.

Bootle have no commanders but they have a 07 plate cadet which you could have got mixed up with

Since the 3 series moved to Bootle they have put just about every type of bus on that route. Last night the last 350 was operated by a Pulsar.

Nice for variety for people who use the service regularly.

That would have been a Cadet - and they're quite unusual on the 311/350. The 345 usually has one of the type per day on there now.

Marshall V659 DVU (7659) was on the 350 this evening. Also, DAF/ALX400 T302 FGN (4062) was on the 58 this evening, too - damn camera failed on me when I had a perfect photo opportunity...! Confused

From the part of the depot you can see from the 61, I have noticed that the DLA that was sat without a rear upstairs window has moved, couldnt see it in the yard so maybe this is now being fixed, don't know which DLA it was though.
