Thanks for that K101. If not at Green Lane though, it's somewhere in limbo (or with the scrap man!) as it wasn't in Jackson Street on Friday.

2273 was boxed in the other day front of the tram but il check in the morning when im in and let u know if its still there or not.

2273 has, and was always, parked on lane 16 in front of the tram when withdrawn from service, it's been in that position for a week now.

Cheers lads!

Note: Discussion regarding the tram has been moved over to the more appropriate St Helens thread.

Just had 2133 for the first time on the 9, not keen on this thing at all, every part of the bus seems to rattle even when not moving and not sure about the rear axle. Bus also felt a bit sluggish but not sure if this was down to the driver, only good thing about this bus is that it is a tidy example inside.

That should have been on a 56 as it was morning when I seen it on London Road at about 7.25, that is a heap that bus anyway as I had it a few weeks ago on the 61 and it almost gave me a headache. just a quick point though mate, 7667 is a Bootle Bus, and whilst I'm here seen it getting towed down Stanley Road at about 4.45.

Yesterday morning, Plaxton Pointer 2 X204 ANC (2204) was unusually on the 10B. I managed to get a photo of it:

ALX300 V405 ENC (2405) was on the 9 in the morning, too.

Also, I managed to photograph Plaxton Pointer 2 S633 KHN (2133), which was on the 12:

In the evening, Renowns Y718 KNF (2718) and Y719 KNF (2719) were both unusually on the 18. I managed to get a photo of 2718:

Also, ALX300 V415 ENC (2415) was unusually on the 6/7. I managed to get a photo of that, too:

Finally, Prestige R153 GNW (2403) was on the 12 yesterday - I presume that it was on its' last journey because it was displaying an odd destination when it was in Liverpool, outbound:

Had 7671 on the 7 on my way home this evening, this must have had something done to it as it wasnt as bad as the last time that I rode, don't get me wrong this is still a shed but an improved shed.
