2406 was nearly in a accident this afternoon. At 4.15pm the driver pulled off from a stop on Shiel Road with out indicating and whilst cars including myself were still over taking it. We had to stop in the middle of the road and pull back in before lights changed and allowed traffic to come the opposite way.
Renown Y719 KNF (2719) was unusually on the 18 today.
2408 broken down outside that theatre near lime street train station and am sure theres something else am ment to post here but cant remember what! think am losing it
Seen 2415 getting driven away from Lime Street with a fitter at the wheel at about 5.30.
yes thank you thats the one! seen it coming to the depot while i was stuck in all traffic
Whatever was up with 2408 must have been minor as it's back out earning it's keep on the 12/13. Just one Renown on the 6/7 today, in the form of 2720. Bit of a Dart fest on the 6/7 today, with 2103/2202/3/7/8 and Pulsar 3077 all noted. 2716/8/9 all in the depot, 2717 on the 15 and 2721 on the 26/27. Also, when riding 7672 on the 68 before I noticed someone had spelt Aigburth Vale as Aigburgh Vale.

Absolute chaos on most of Green Lane's route network today. The 6/7/8/9/10B were all subject to major delays due to the roadworks on Edge Lane, most people must have been trying to avoid Edge Lane by using Prescot Road causing trouble there. I witnessed a number of 6/7's running a good 15-20 minutes late, 8/9's were turning short and running 15-20 late and even running in pairs. 10B was, once again, subject to 15-20 minute delays and running in twos and even threes. 18 was also chaotic due to (yet more) roadworks on Queens Drive by Muirhead Avenue, I witnessed three 18's come into town together at one point.
2576 was also on the 6/7 again
2223 is a new transfer to Green Lane, it's out on the 68 today. All the Commanders have been on the 18 at some point today, but 2575 was booked off for 2207 at 11:30ish. 2717 is on the 12/13 and 2720 is on the 26/27.
2675 2962 and at least one more were on the 6/7 today,a nice refreshing change to

the usual dross of darts/renowns
3013 was the other Pulsar on the 6/7. Picked a good day Rob, Thursday and Friday were both Dart fests on there!
