Both Marshals out today. 7652 on 80A and 7637 on 80

I passed them on DAF 2460 which in my opinion, the best bus at Speke. Immaculate interior, sweet ZF and very little in the form of vibrations.

If Speke is short of buses is this due to maintainence backlog or vehicles that have ben involved in RTI's ( Road Traffic Incidents).

I seen 2475 on the 80 and 2477 on the 75, alongside many Myllenniums on Liverpool services! I also seen 2451 broken-down on the outskirts of Liverpool at about 13:50-ish.

I had 7652 on the 80A between Liverpool and the airport, which was sluggish and quite squeaky and rattly on the worst roads of the route.

I seen 2593 and 2595 on the 500 today, which means that, at least, two of the usual 500 buses were off (2601, 2602 and 7909).

Do you happen to know what the fleet numbers are for the two ex VLW's?
Thanks!

The white Pulsar was seen returning to Speke depot from the Airport at around 3.30 this afternoon.
Oh Superman where are you now, when everything's gone wrong somehow, the men of steel, the men of power, are losing control by the hour.
