Yeah, I know there was some uncertainty about what route the X4 would take around Runcorn, so I'm surprised this is what was eventually settled on.

I spotted 2791 in Prescot at lunchtime on a 61
3078 is now here from Green Lane depot.

Out of curiosity, is 3077 also at Runcorn? Usual precautions regarding the accuracy of Bustimes but it's not tracked since December 5th.

3077 It's on the Busway today
I caught the X4 yesterday from Murdishaw around 12.50, & the journey had a decent loading, so i can see this route staying & having a frequency increase, which the route does need.
It seems strange that route X4 runs during Mon-Sat evenings but not at all on Sundays.

yes, would be nice if they where every 30mins in rush hour

tbh we dont need a Sunday service, numbers were very low on the X1 on sundays the last Sunday X1 started at 10:00 that was full at Palacefields and it was hourly and that was it from that time was low passenger numbers
