RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
Can they catch the 420 instead?
Admittedly this wouldn't work in the other direction

That's the service she goes for but there's only one am journey per day. If that's full it's the 437.

What is the legality of running duplicates if a service continually gets full .

RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
Running duplicates is not very common nowadays and the TC's prefer the operator to apply for a short term notice of registration (which is normally granted without question) if the need to supply a higher frequency is in the public interest.

It's still at Green Lane. It was at Birkenhead on loan a few months ago

Does anyone old enough to pre-deregulation remember the 35 Woodside - New Brighton does the 414 operate down the same roads in New Brighton area ?

RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
I can't remember the full details of the route but I do remember the 35 and I know that the New Brighton end would be slightly different as the 35 used to start/terminate at Virginia Road back in those days looking at the fare table I have from October 1983 apart from that the route could be the same as the 414

Only difference the 35 had to the 414, is the 35 went around the Town Meadow Lane loop in Moreton, otherwise minus traffic calming one way systems, & a different New Brighton terminus ecc its the same route.
