Yeah, I know there was some uncertainty about what route the X4 would take around Runcorn, so I'm surprised this is what was eventually settled on.

Out of curiosity, is 3077 also at Runcorn? Usual precautions regarding the accuracy of Bustimes but it's not tracked since December 5th.

I caught the X4 yesterday from Murdishaw around 12.50, & the journey had a decent loading, so i can see this route staying & having a frequency increase, which the route does need.

It seems strange that route X4 runs during Mon-Sat evenings but not at all on Sundays.

tbh we dont need a Sunday service, numbers were very low on the X1 on sundays the last Sunday X1 started at 10:00 that was full at Palacefields and it was hourly and that was it from that time was low passenger numbers

In that case, I am surprised there is the demand to run it much into the evenings for the rest of the week.
