Noteworthy is Renown 2706 out on 352/395s this afternoon having replaced Pulsar 2696 on the 15.20 352 working from St Helens. Also noteworthy is the presence of an old livery Dart with Urban90 seating on 10s. Arrived in St Helens having completed a round trip at 15.20 again.

Just had the misfortune to have 7650 on the 32, what an absolute shocker it is. When going over pot holes the interior lights flickered on and off, squeaky breaks, rattles and getting jossled about in your seat made for a very uncomfortable ride home.

With 7640 now at Bolton, this has got to be the worst bus at St Helens now in my opinion, hopefully it won't be to long before this makes it's exit from St Helens to.

Thanks!

The heap that is 2494 was taken off the 329 in St Helens at 5.50 and replaced with 2974. 7650 seem to come in off a 36/A at 6pm and went back out as a 32.

Judging by the time then, 7650 has probably been allocated to 32 lates - surely a better vehicle could have been found at this time in the evening.

On the subject of Darts that are not that good, early part of this week I've had 2346 and 2254 and found them both to be fairly sluggish and don't seem to be good at taking any power.

7650 has been out on the 32's all day as far as I am aware. It was out this morning and mid afternoon. There has been a Marshall on the 36/A today, I think it was 7644.

Thanks!
