Volvo B7TL 4113 is a lovely example of a refurbished bus, if all these B7s are going to be to this high standard then this is good news for Speke. The quality of the work is second to none.

I have a photo of 4125 on the 501!
From a good source from the 7th october services 75 and 80A are reduced to every 30 minutes in the evenings. The 79D is withdrawn on Sundays and the 79 is increased to every 15 minutes to Halewood. The 500 early morning journeys are serving all stops to the airports and the evening service are withdrawn.
I posted details of these changes a few weeks ago!
It's nice to see that some drivers of the 79 use stand 2 (if it's available) at Queen Square if stand 1 is blocked. Common sense prevails!

Then again there are some drivers who don't bother with this.
2458 and 2461 on there way to Speke

The ex-Runcorn cadets (possibly 07 reg too) are due to be going Green Lane
Finally, common sense prevails! Can't wait to see these Cadets turn up at Green Lane, about time some of them awful tired Darts are replaced. Might only be 5 buses (8 if the 07s get transferred) but it's a start!
This would seem to be a temporary measure until we get the Enviros from Birkenhead.

Are Enviros still on the cards? I thought that plan was shelved when Rhyl were supposed to be getting GLs share for the 12. Still, I hope we're getting them anyway!

10 were for Speke (Official notice inside of depot), 10 for GL (later Wrexham amongst other depots apparently)
