the new 38 takes too long timings dont work need to cut it down abit tbh did last 38 from Birkenhead to Heswall the other night and driver was going slow and stopping all over the place so could do with making the 38 quicker tbh

Its always best though to start off with the timings longer than they should be , the timings can always be altered if Stagecoach think that the times are not quite right .

4 of Birkenheads PX04 Tridents have been loaned to Chorley (iirc), a number of other buses have been loaned to other depots, apparently gillmoss

presume just B10BLE from RF
I see the last 472 board seems to have the same PX04 Trident every night

Tridents are a regular on the 71/2s now while Enviro400s are retrimmed, repainted and WiFi'd. 19046 is currently off for this and 19022 in for engine rebuild

B10BLE 21116 on the 38 short to West Kirby this afternoon, I guess it does them a bit of good being out and about when otherwise they'd be sitting in the depot whilst it is half term.

In answer to your question Wirralbus, it was a long 38. Maybe it was running v early, I don't know.

A welcome change on the last X2 from Ellesmere Port to Chester this evening - a Dennis Trident! I think the fleet number was 17091?

17491's at Chester, so I would guess it's that.

Apparently some of Rock Ferry's Tridents including 18152 are currently or have been on hire to Stagecoach Manchester to help out on Tram Replacement services this weekend with one seeing service between Manchester Piccadilly and Central Park yesterday afternoon
