The passengers were shifted onto the 14A which had also just arrived behind it, to take them to Vicarage Road. A few minutes later, #26 came by and picked up the 17A route towards St Helens.

Yes, I think it would be a service 2 which would be missing or operate late due to this incident (I may be wrong, but I think that all inbound 17a's go onto the 2, apart from the 17a due in at Vicarage Road at 0842, 1752 and 1852).
It sounds on the face of it like the vehicle was quite behind time too: there should generally be quite a gap between a 17a arriving at Vicarage Road and the next outbound 17a leaving -- that is, apart from the 17a due in at 0842.
