Usual bus times disclainlmer but looks like 724 managed a part journey on the 10A this morning. I say part journey as it only appeared to track as far as Rainhill.

4625 now repainted and refurbished - very nice internally.

Noticed a few E200MMCs in Metro colours on the M62 near IKEA around 11.10 this morning heading westbound guessing they are for St Helens.

Optare Solo Sr 718 hs been fitted with next stop information system. Wasn't expecting that when I drove it this morning

Didn’t think the St Helens fleet would get done before they move on in September.

I thought they would never get them fitted, was expectting they would go for scrap in September as they are well past their best, If they are investing in them maybe they will see service elsewhere, My Condolences to whoever ends up with them.
