Enviro200 DK08 AYU on 152s today - a marked allocation improvement upon the Sprinter on Saturday.

As Reported in the Vosa thread HTL have lost the 123 to Peoplesbus and gained the 206 from Peoplesbus. So kind of a swop round

Given that all the information is on the VOSA thread, (as noted below) there are a few changes to contracts from October!

As noted, routes 101 and 123 are lost to other operators, but Mon-Sat daytime routes 206 (Hightown - Crosby - Blundellsands circular), 603 (Newton Community Hospital - Ashton Heath) & 990/1/2/3 (Kirkby Circulars) replace these and overall have a like-for-like PVR.

In addition they gain additional evening/Sunday work with routes 157/8 (Bootle - Netherton circular) & 210/241/250 (Liverpool - Maghull (Ashworth Hospital)).

Bus operating the 159 has broken down in fazakerley fitters are underneath it.

YJ12 NBX looks to be a nice Solo SR Demonstrator on loan to HTL, seen currently on the Stockbridge Circular route 258, Silver+blue & DP seated like the ALX400 B7TL's at Arriva Speke

I'll try to get some pics of that one tonight!

The exact same one that was with Halton Transport late last year, and very nice it was too!.
