Boosting capacity on Uni runs until low floor deckers are available.

This is what 22960 is usually to be found on. I have never understood this, but it is a Carlisle vehicle working outstationed at Lillyhall. Why it is not a West Cumbria operation I do not know.

The 600 is different on Saturdays and the 301 is Monday to Friday only. I do not go into Carlisle on Saturdays very often but I do not think 20960 works on Saturdays and presumably is parked up over there for the weekend. Perhaps someone else on here can explain this?

It might as well be a Lillyhall run these days. The bus used to do the 6:55 300 then would run empty to Wigton to run in again on 8:55 Syke Rd Wigton - Carlisle 600 before going onto 93s. A separate bus used to do the 9:40 and 13:40 600s.

On a Saturday it does the Asby - Cockermouth - Carlisle 600, 11:40 600 to WC Hospital, back to Carlisle then 15:40 600 to Asby, running empty back to Lillyhall.

Thanks guys sounds like it is unlikely to get a B10 on Saturday so I might have to visit on a weekday this week. A couple of weeks ago it was bit different with 20944 on the 600 and 20219 on the Penrith staff shuttle one day and on the 38 the next. I didn't see 20960 or 20965 at all.
