Think it's the first batch that's slow, plus lack of seats downstairs, were they the criticisms from, i actually quite like them.
Yes, for really long buses the amount of seats downstairs is quite poor.
The seating arrangement is poor for less-able people.

True enough or for people with prams, personally I always go upstairs anyway but not everybody can.
The other thing, if your sitting upstairs near the front on some early DLAs, because the stairs are towards the rear you have to leave your seat a little bit earlier than on buses with forward stairs otherwise you'll miss your stop.

Yes and the bell does not come until the stairs and is the reason why.
Myllenium 2463 has broken down on the 81 this morning Speke Bound at the bus stop after the East Lancs on Queens Drive, don't hink it had been there long when I seen it as people were getting off on to the 60 behind. Engine cover was up.
could it have been towed back to Green Lane as one was coming out of there earlier.

I wouldnt have thought so, direct to speke would have been the likely thing.
A Mylenmium was parked up in between to Flashing light Police cars in Toxteth, Close to Prices park today around 2. The driver wasent there, and there was some people being arrested
how many routes go from the Speke depot?
