Perhaps a tad off topic for the thread but what part of the route is being covered by Howards? And have you got a timetable please?

Unfortunate news of a crash today in Orford:

Presume it's the Winwick section as that's the only missing part.

I had a Volvo B7 Eclipse on a 19 this afternoon. Let’s just say it’s pretty tight around certain parts of that diversion route lol
RE: WBT Network Warrington - Valandil - 09/04/2018 22:39
Can I ask which particular journey that 19 was and which routes you did before and after the 19?
I'm guessing that the 19 still generally goes onto a 22 during the interpeak period.
Any info about boards and workings much appreciated as always.

No problem Valandi. I was actually a spare driver, the driver on that duty was unfortunately involved in the RTA in Orford so I had to cover the rest of his duty. The routes for that duty were a 25 then a 5 out and a 5A back on a VDL Cadet. Meal break then a 21, 13 and a 19 to finish the duty. Hope that helps. The Volvo Eclupse has been on Pops all day before I took it over for my duty.

Can anyone advise why the Enviro200 MMC's have not been delivered in time for the service changes? Looks a bit poor having rebranded the routes and still using tatty life expired Cadets.

I believe they will be arriving this week

There is one in Scarborough, Possibly on its way to warrington. I would say from Wednesday we would start seeing them arriving

That's really interesting, thanks!
It has made quite an interesting logic puzzle working out the details - might it have been the following, if you can remember?
25 1015 - 1202
5o 1208 - 1314
5Ai1321 - 1435
- meal break -
21 1530 - 1605
13 1610 - 1655
19 1702 - 1848
I guess that in the future that first part may have a Cheshire Cat vehicle allocated, meaning a Cheshire Cat in Orford, Cinnamon Brow and Birchwood on route 25.
Any information on workings is always much appreciated!
