Yes that is Cumfybus that is in the old RedRider yard in Moreton. They have been there for a few months now their old depot has been fenced off and some by the looks of it some sort of work will be taking place there. I have a sneaking suspicision that the old site might be part of the Wirral Waters development

Well that will make them ideally located for the 901 then.

Hybrid Solo YJ12 GXN was unusually on the 57C/58C/144/145 yesterday - first time in service? - along with Solo M710SE MX08 DHL and Solo M850 X182 NWR. YJ12 GXN went onto the 130 yesterday evening, too!
A hybrid Solo was unusually on the 157 this morning.
On the subject of hybrid Solos, YJ12 GXF now sports a back-end all-over advertisement.

VOSA info also confirms Cumfybus have won the following from October:
133 (Waterloo - Kirkby Admin) - Ex Stagecoach
162 (Penny Lane - Bootle) AM 162s, currently run by Ace Travel.
231/232/233/234 (Maghull Circulars) - Ex Ace Travel
RE: Cumfybus - Harryn9000 - 07/08/2012 18:40
so stagecoach gave up 133 then very good route that when most ppl was moaning about lack of buses in crosby hope they run it well
RE: Cumfybus - buses7675 - 07/08/2012 18:46
I don't think they gave up as such, but were underbid by Cumfybus as it is a Merseytravel contract route so, usually, the lowest biding operator wins the contract.

Could be a bit of a bus war going on here as i was informed by a driver last night that ace were supposed to be getting the 135/235 aintree/bootle circulars but now it transpires that cumfybus have taken the 135/235 and are going to run it commercially themselves so ace are lauching an application to retain the maghull circulars and run them commercially so its just a case now of wait and see.

I managed to get a photo of YJ12 GXN on the C2 yesterday - the latest hybrid Solo to enter service:

Also, I managed to visit this company's Southport depot. Here are some photos:
