Here it is whilst waiting for YJ61 MOU to replace it when it arrived A bloke came up with the driver and said to the driver on the 266 that the SR was now going to Scotland

is it me or has HTL website gone?

Bit of a merry-go-round on allocations yesterday, YJ13 HJV was on the Huyton Circulars (and later 17B), YJ12 PNN was on the 163 (and later 196/147) and YJ61 MOF was on the 173/174 in place of YJ13 HJV!

Sorry to ask but what routes do HTL Currently operate?
also what are they loosing and what will they be getting in the service changes

All the current HTL routes can be seen at http://dartslf.com/htl-buses-routes/

They lose routes 101 and 123 in October, however they gain 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)).

Any idea of what's going to be used on 603s? Will it be Joblink buses or the small narrow Solos, I'm hoping the odd ex Nottingham Solo will creep onto the route but I very much doubt it

Could be any vehicle in HTL's fleet from Envro 200's down to Sprinters, just a case I think of wait & see.

I'd expect it will be Optare Solos on the 603 !

Another swap around yesterday, YJ13 HJV was on the 163 (and later 196/147) and YJ61 MOF was in its place on the 173/174!

Think i saw you driving the 263 the other day mate. it was a showing elle vale 263 lol
