I have a photo knocking about somewhere taken at their depot some years ago with about 5 Titans, a metrorider and a Leyland national. Yeah I think it was a National Greenway it saw service on the 182 which then became the 82 I think. |

RE: Avon Buses
Going back further, didn't Avon used to operate NCME Atlanteans from a compound in Widnes?? |

RE: Avon Buses
Routes 164 and 411 are operated commercially at the moment, are they being withdrawn and replaced by a Merseytravel service? |

They had at least three ex-Merseybus deckers; 0243, 0246 (registered B18 AVN) and 0248. AVON 248 (F248 YTJ) with 246 next to it.... https://www.flickr.com/photos/busman-buses/8470652031/ (Photo Credit; Count Dracula) I actually remember riding this bus some years ago. It had Arriva 'Tyne Bridge' blue moquette seating which looked at odds with the brown interior panelling. There was a notice on board about 'Revisions to Arriva Northumbria school services', so it had obviously moved away with MTL's takeover before returning back to Merseyside after being sold on to Avon. As seen here as Arriva Northumbria 7201.... https://www.flickr.com/photos/45726467@N02/11291873095/ (Photo Credit; David Beardmore) |

RE: Avon Buses
How can one route have Special non-standard Fares? Surely this opens up a can of worms. View my flickr http://m.flickr.com/#/photos/104753198@N08/ my flickr account. |

I think Merseytravel should be looking at removing the 1 and 2 in the numbers of the daytime service and maybe having it as a 35 and 35A just so that operators of said service don't get any aggravation from any passengers saying it was this price last night why isn't it this price now . |

RE: Avon Buses
Might be partly tendered rather than fully tendered which entitles them to charge there own fares. |
