Yes but you're still spending more money than necessary, in both tolls and fuel, when a straight out swap in Liverpool on Crosshall Street would be very straight forward; there is less dead mileage and the shuttle driver hands the new keys to the service driver who takes the new bus and hands the old keys back to the shuttle driver to take the old vehicle straight to Gillmoss. The new bus can wait on Crosshall Street in the layover bay and the exchange can happen on Whitechapel as the bus is emptying of passengers - that way there is no disruption to other services and no hogging of layover space with an additional bus.
