Cumfybus
RE: Cumfybus
An ex-Courtney Buses (Finchampstead) Optare Versa V1170H, registration YJ64 DZL, will be joining Cumfybus on loan for a few weeks. It was expected to be based at Bolton depot for the duration of its stay but this may now change and it might be used at Aintree depot instead. It has been supplied by Optare's Trafford Park servicing facility as cover for TfGM-owned vehicles currently long-term VOR there. It is expected to be collected at some point this week when a decision will be taken with regard to its depot allocation.

RE: Cumfybus
If it is to cover for TFGM Hybrids it would make sense to have it at Bolton otherwise you would have to move Buses from Aintree to Bolton that would be more messing about or leave the Depot short witch would be a poor idea

RE: Cumfybus
Is the yard at Southport next to the Arriva garage at Canning road still used for buses or are they all based at Aintree now? Thanks.

The Southport yard moved some time ago round the back to Russell Road by the Arriva 46 terminus. It is also next door to local coach operator Fusco's Coaches.

The overall route availability would probably be better at Aintree, hence why it may go over there.
