I believe I managed to photograph both when I was down Chester and Liverpool. I didn't realise they were withdrawing them (they've not long been in Stagecoach livery!), so it's great I managed to photograph them.

Bit of an update

the allocation on the 500 express service between Liverpool and Liverpool Airport has changed, it was 3 Merc-benzs Bendies but now its 1 Bendie and 2 Wright Commanders (normally 2601 and 2602)

a bit of a rare sighting today we got the Interurban Plaxton Prestige on the 81 service between Liverpool Airport and Bootle Bus Station, normally this service is ran by DAF Mylleniums!

Looking very likely Impera Buses of the Wirral are about to cease trading, News has already reached Wirral Newsbeat saying they have ceased trading however tonight they are running their 31A and 39 Services but dont have working fast tags for the Mersey Tunnels... i do hope the Company find a way to keep going but its looking like another firm is about to be lost from the North West..

recivers and investors are currently looking at a possibility of the firm staying on the road, M. Steens has left the company and he was one of the main bosses, what a grim hope this is turning out to be

Now this might turn out to be of some use

PC0002598/356 - ARRIVA NORTH WEST LTD, 73 ORMSKIRK ROAD, LIVERPOOL, L9 5AE
Variation Accepted by SN: Operating between Bolton Bus Station and Crowthorn School given service number 537/538 effective from 28-Oct-2013. To amend Route and Timetable.

from the 27th the 537 is set to no longer serve Edgworth, a little village in Lancashire however this is the 2nd Reg and now could mean that after a campain lead by a local MP the service could be returning the Edgworth.
