Now that is the surprise of the year 2021 , never expected them to be asked to do anything like that , so what is Stagecoach doing with the vehicles that presently run this service then , i wonder.

As the route only has a PVR of 3, my guess they will return to the vehicle pool, either that or replace some older vehicle in the fleet, of allow others to pass to other organisations

If my memory serves me correctly it was up until 2006 when happy al's lost the 177 Woodside - Heswall, 190 prenton circular the 145/146 & the 154/155 circular routes to radonneur which I worked for from 2006 - 2008.

They were under investigation by merseytravel at that time and the traffic commissioner stripped happy al's of public services and were allowed to only operate school routes.

I remember them operating the 140 in St Helens at one point too.

I remember seeing them walking home from School as a kid as the 140 was my local route before the 32A replaced it in 2006 I think
