Having logged onto Facebook and found their page it states;
"Impera regret to inform that due to vehicle malfunction, the 1238 service off West Kirby, 1326 service off New Brighton and 1408 service off West Kirby will fail to operate. We sincerely apologise for this and any problems caused. The error has no been rectified and the 1456 off New Brighton will operate as scheduled."

This board was operated by the Pulsar, YJ59 AZA, which fell ill with suspension issues and is, yet again, resting in the depot whilst awaiting attention from an Arriva Bus and Coach engineer... As a result of there being only two buses on the 39 for a few hours, I'm aware that (at least) one journey was dropped down to late-running.

1A-branded 2671 failed on the 39 tonight because of gearbox issues; the dreaded 2511 replaced it.

Finally, if I remember correctly, 2523 is to become a temporary driver-training bus whilst car drivers are trained to become bus drivers over the next few months.
