As long as everybody is ok it doesn't matter about the bus, however I won't be sorry if that one has had its day, that of course will depend on the damage.

Apparently, an accident involving a Bootle Marshall on the 58 on London Road in Liverpool occurred this afternoon - not a good week for Bootle!

Wonder if that accident has something to do with the bus lane closures, hope everyone was ok and I suppose this will spell the end for this marshall Sad Wouldn't be surprised if we see the likes of 7660 return to cover for the lost buses

7649 was the bus that hit the car on Lime St outside St Georges Hall.

Shake rattle n roll but a good engine, hope everybody involved in the accident was ok.

4431 was unusually on the 311 this morning, however I'm sure that a Pulsar was originally on its board (so probably not an original allocation).

Interurban example?
Looks like this is at the front of the depot (visible from Hawthorne Road), with the headlamps, indicators and most of the front panelling missing.

Doubt it will ever see service again, but you never know...

The only Marshall in old livery that Bootle have left is 7662, as for 7649, well probably have seen the last of it, but if they need it there are plenty of marshalls to choose from for parts.


RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot - N271CKB - 13/11/2013 12:53
