I think it was, I only managed to catch the reg which I thought was FXD. Looking at it now it must have been FXO, therefore making it 2527. Did wonder what 2519 was doing in Runcorn!
Heres a picture of it. Captured by Nick Thromson.

2726 is on the 79c lates
2527 is earmarked for transfer to Southport once the new Lion City gas buses arrive.

Their are problems in both Runcorn and Widnes over the weekend with two major roads closed in connection with the Merseygate,

The Ford Road been one from just passed the Knowsley Expressway so long delays on the diversion,

Most have been a driver who seeing how bad it was been getting so would have better to go up the M62 to Rainhill then down the Widnes Bypass, no stops would have been missed out doing this would have put about 10 to 15 mins on the trip better than been stuck for 40 to 50 mins on Ditton Road
The first of the MAN Lion's is now at the MAN workshop's at Trafford Park
Solo's 708/709 are now allocated to Runcorn depot they are for the 3A/3C service
There is a few pictures of the new gas buses. This one is from James Bus Photo
