Same with 10/10A it's a mixture

In that case, do Geminis often work the 10 routes?

10/10A routes at present are a mix of Enviro 400's and Gemini's and very occasionally the odd Pulsar.

2968 was the only bus doing shuttles in Warrington yesterday afternoon, carried nothing but air when I saw it. The area around the college quiet to what I was expecting.

Thank you for your confirmation of this. My hunch is that I shall come to St Helens and devise a flexible itinerary depending on which route I see a refurbished Gemini on.

My plan then is trains to St Helens Central via Wigan, then buses and maybe other trains landing up at Liverpool Lime Street, then a train back home via Wigan. I have done the electrified line via St Helens Junction but not yet via St Helens Central.

May or may not be of interest to you, but refurbished Pulsars are regulary used on 329/360 routes.

It has been back out about two weeks. It was painted into new livery before the issues with its suspension.
