I thought it was the darts to blame, but since theyve put the ex SL cadets on its just as bad! As we all know, the mechanics arnt happy with SLs bodge jobs on them... typical.

Its always late because it does not get enough time in Bromborough,Easham to keep
to the time allocated iuse it on Mark rake a lot and nearly always 5+ min late on arrival
from mill park

The section of the 418/9 between Mill Park and Bromborough Cross has always been very tightly timed for some reason , could it be if they relaxed the timetable it could cause a different pinch point elsewhere on the route .

That was the case with 3018 though and that was dealt with by the body shop lads.
