Indeed, a shocking allocation! If 886 breaks down, they're buggerd!

Same as Queen Square bus station! You would think by now Merseytravel would use a better grade of tarmac on the roads!

The originial idea behind the old 487/464 timing was to create a 15 minute service along the main stretch between Liverpool, Tranmere and Bebington, however the new timetable means, as has been mentioned, a very close behind 464!

If i remember rightly it was quite troublesome at first, then it got re-engined and was brilliant, then went downhill again before it went elsewhere!

7635 is still at the back of Laird Street, not sure exactly why, its been parked there for months now!

I've got it down for disposal on my list, apparently they considered putting it on the road whilst they have this vehicle shortage but the cost of putting it on the road outweighed the need.

Technically, yes and it has been for a good few months. Very unlikely it will return to service given that several have already been withdrawn and are being stripped.
