I take it once the last phase of the Wirral line track replacement has finished, this is when most if not all of the fleet transfers will happen.

What are the numbers of the Gemini 2s that we suspect will be coming after the rail replacements for the 89?

Does the 1603 20 still operate from St Helens? I've noticed once or twice it hasn't turned up at all as I'd been waiting for half an hour for a ride on a B10 before they're all withdrawn. There's been single deckers showing out of service on the desty and go onward in the direction of the depot still showing out of service.

It's on vosa as well for changing, effective 23rd July but no details given

The ex speke gemini 2's transferred in will be going through the body and paintshop before entering service on the 89's.
I beleive there will be some kind of launch to promote it too as they will all enter service on the same day.

Quite amazing when you think that the 89 has gone from Cadets to Volvo's/Pulsars and now on to Decker in the space of just over a decade.

What goes around comes around. My first memory of the (St Helen's corpy) 89s is of AEC/Leyland back loaders travelling through darkest Woolton.

They use to use the F reg MCW METROBUS's on there quite often before the cadets was purchased with funding from merseytravel.
