I have just seen silver Solo MX05OTA on the 130. How long has the rear destination box been positioned upside down? I suppose if it operated on routes 1 or 11 it wouldn't be a problem.

Looks like they'll have to use it on the 101 then.

They should also keep it off the 901, which I believe shares stops at Moreton Cross with the 106!

Variation Accepted by SN: Operating between Crossens, Harrogate Way and Crossens, Harrogate Way given service number 40 effective from 28-Apr-2015. To amend Route and Timetable.

Anyone know what this change was? I ask as theres no new Timetable on the Merseytravel Website and no information about it anywhere

I heard they were getting new machines but was unsure when they were being fitted. The buses have already had the electrical wiring installed for the new machines.

I wonder how they'll be programmed and whether they'll be enthusiast friendly as the ones on Rosso's vehicles actually print out not only the fleetnumber on the ticket machine but the buses registration as well.

Also regarding ENCTS holders like myself will we be issued with tickets or will it just register the pass without issuing a ticket, have to wait and see I guess.

Aintree based YJ13 HNL was seen on the Wirral Operating the 901 Today, I assume its just a loan?

Another thing, Are Cumfybus starting to do Fleetnumbers as i was shown a Photo of an Older Style Solo with number 69 by the Doors

They did attempt to number buses visually about 9 years ago but seems to have been discontinued quickly. They are numbered on paper though. The system used its to number vehicles in order of entry into the fleet not agree or class type etc
