I do wonder at what point down the line that this depot will become an all double decker operation , can see the 500 going double decker in the long term as well. |

An interesting thought. I wonder what was the last depot on Merseyside to be all double-decker operation. I suspect it was either Walton or Litherland, both of them closed shortly after deregulation in 1986. Any advances? |

They may have had mini buses although not sure. |

4112 was another B7TL I noticed with AdBlue treatment the other day on the 81. 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.

Whilst Speke does not need replacements for the Bendis at present it will do in September when the University returns. As the 699 requires high capacity buses will 4100-4107 return to Speke? I know that the plan is to send them to Winsford but plans are fluid. Other options could be to retain some Mylleniums short term or draft in Pulsars surplus at Rhyl or Commanders 2504-13 which will also be surplus soon. Anybody got any information? All time rail mileage travelled 327264 miles |

4113 and 4114 are two further B7TLs to have AdBlue treatment and after at least 7 years of displaying just a dot on the back display, 4121 finally has a working rear display. I wonder if 4116s defective front unit has been sorted now. 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.
