Which anybody can edit, so hardly reliable.

I don't think I've seen any hate for the depot, but the idea of it making big money is clearly way wide of the mark, if it was, it wouldn't be allocated clapped out old sheds.

The 79C was much more appealing when it was with Speke as it had some decent buses run it

Some extra work for Arriva Runcorn coming soon in the form of services 3D/20(A), after Howards run these on a temporary basis.

Oh wow, definitely interesting to hear that Arriva have it but I can't see them having it for long like.

Also, to everyone here, 5011 (OW17 WNC) was either withdrawn last night or is to be withdrawn tonight due to its MOT expiration

I've just been down to look at the depot from the back (of course not going in), currently there from Bolton are 2673, 2677, 2680, 2682, 2685, 2686, 2936 and 2948. There were a few more behind 2673, 77 and 2682 but I couldn't identify them due to the 3 blocking them, one did look like CX58 EUR (2674) though or possibly CX58 EWZ (2909) but there was no sign of CX58 EXB (2911) there, probably behind all the others

Ex wales Pulsar 2s 3202 3203 3205 and 3206 have arrived here this afternoon

The three remaining Ecocity’s that remain in service seem to have been concentrated on Runcorn ‘local’ routes (Busway and Old Town Circular) making them much easier to swap out into storage when further replacements become serviceable

Which are the remaining ones, please?
