As I remember when st Helen's took over the lates on the Kitt Green Circulars in wigan when skelmersdale shut down , gmpte use to be very unhappy about using Marshall darts on there because drivers wouldn't put the route number on all three destination blinds and only on the front.
Within 12 month they lost them.

If I had to identify one thing in the past decade that has improved passenger satisfaction it would be electronics on all three blinds not USB charging or wi-fi and certainly not the new Arriva app.

Selwyns will now be running extra duplicate school journeys for Arriva services S47, S79, and S79C from Mondays to Fridays

The S47 will be ran alongside with Arriva themselves and Maghull Coaches according to the Merseytravel website.

These 16 vehicles are still parked up at Sharston , and still carry the 70 plates. Has anyone got any info please ?
