Normally a whining noise tends to come down to a worn diff , most companies only tend to change them once they become fully defunct due to the cost in purchasing and fitting them.

It will be the diff but has been deemed ok to continue, with the school requirement it can't really be off the road for any prolonged period at the moment anyway. Both it and BVD find regular work on evenings now too as well as the occasional weekend duty.

I notice a few of HTL's Merseytravel contracts have reduced frequencies from today. Is this Merseytravel budget cuts or is it down to staff shortages?


RE: HTL Buses - CX06 EBK - 22/06/2021 00:41

It's down to staff shortages, it is meant to be fairly short term (4 weeks was mentioned) but we will see.

Thanks for clarifying.

Any idea what is happening with SN06 BMO please?


RE: HTL Buses - CX06 EBK - 29/06/2021 11:54

It's off the road having various inspection works carried out.

A new arrival here is of Fiat Ducato/Bluebird YX13BWO. I am not sure if it will be staying as was told it might not be suitable but if it does it will be for Merseylink work.

Look's like the 174 (alongside other services) are being diverted away from Lydiate Lane and Belle Vale Road from 19:00 every evening until further notice as anti-social behaviour has resurged in the area.

One of HTL's Solos were attacked the other night as well according to this ECHO article.
