10A was New Brighton - Clatterbridge via Birkenhead Town centre and Woodside .

411 Liverpool to Heygarth Road / Plymyard Avenue , there was some sort of agreement with First not to operate to the Mill Park Estate , hence the strange destination , the bus did operate empty around the Mill Park to turn the vehicle .

Going back even earlier, anyone have a list of MPTE Wirral routes at all?? I remember from many years back the white route maps for each division......anyone else remember them??

Got a full set unopened somewhere. I drew changes all over the first set in pencil, luckily I found another set and put them to one side.
