2419 proven illusive for me as well, most probably laid up in the depot yet again. 7632 is at Wythenshawe, 7642 has transferred in as it's replacement Smile
HTIOH!

2947 was in the workshops all day
2419 is off for MOT should be back on mid next week,

from now on the only time you should see a Pulsar on the 79C is one replaces a Cadet to cover a b/down

3137 as now been fitted with a transponder so should send most the time on the X30 when not covering for one of the x1 branded ones

I know; I'm guessing that "2947" was a mistake.

Aren't transponders used to encourage traffic lights to turn green quicker?

I remember when they first started using them in London on Leyland Titans in the late 1980s as congestion was terrible back then (then again it's still terrible now)Smile

the transponders runcorn fit are for the barriers at chester in the buses and taxi lane.

Are Speke and St Helens fitted with them for JLA?
