Overheard one customer the other day boarding at Sir Thomas Street in Liverpool, asking if the decker on route 2 was the "Park & Ride" bus. I know geography isn't a strong point with a lot of people, but I can tell Cambridge from Chester!

That was always going to be a problem with them arriving with all the publicity for park and ride on them that they would be remembered for the wrong reasons.

When the vehicles do move south to Cambridge they will be missed they look damn good vehicles .

is there a good time to catch these 'out on the road'?? Did get a shot of 10809 in the yard at Gillmoss earlier (with what I'm assuming is 10808 further behind). Am having a full day out tomorrow so keen to catch these out in service if I can! Ta in advance!

Agreed - they are very good buses. Excellent to ride on & comfortable too, with plenty of legroon, Wi-FI and USB recharging available on board. Light, bright & airy. I'd like to see something similar allocated up here, but I'm not holding my breath.

This morning I was saw at Scotland Road but couldn't see fleet number could be either 10808 or 809, I couldn't catch them cos too far away. If I closer them I will catch fleet number and photo too. I've done marks up with photo 10796-807 and 810. But not yet with 808 and 809, this Friday I'm going to Liverpool again with my car trying to catch up with photos. Not to miss out!!!
