Managed to grab a quick ride, not to bad of a bus. It has only had a paint job though and not full p&p treatment. Thanks!

4014 is still out on 33's - it was on the 1459 from St Helens towards Sutton Heath. |

RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
On a 10 on the way out of Liverpool, it's rammed, the only other experience I have had like it is the London Underground. Is it frequently like this or is it just the odd service that gets busy. Doesn't of course help when those standing won't move down the bus. The poor driver got a load of abuse for telling somebody to stand behind the yellow line, little wonder bus drivers are always grumpy haha |

It's like that all the time, I'm afraid, yet it remains almost always a decker-free zone. Farcical.

If it were actual competition with Stagecoach, then maybe Arriva would see the need to shape up and actually try and keep their customers happy. But this QBP arrangement seems to have quite a different effect. |

RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
Forgive me for being naive but what dose QBP stand for? I was going to ask what the busiest route was at St Helens but the answer to that would be obvious so does anybody have any knowledge what the busiest routes are on Merseyside? |
