RE: HTL Buses - St Helens Rider - 05 Jan 2014

V980 XUB on 17B today - vast improvement on the White Sprinter on the route last Sunday. St Helens though wasn't Sprinter free today unfortunately as there was one on the 156/602.

Almost there Tongue

noticed all the Ex Nottingham Solos apart from W603 PTO are now withdrawn from active service.


RE: HTL Buses - St Helens Rider - 05 Jan 2014

That's a shame as I like the ex Nottingham Solos - bench seats and a feeling of plenty of space within the vehicle which is a change for a Solo.


RE: Arriva St Helens - St Helens Rider - 06 Jan 2014

Last Marshall standing 7634 is back out today on the 32 following it's breakdown on Friday whilst on the 34.

RE: JPT - Terence Price - 09 Jan 2014

Just had a look at the JPT Fleetlist regarding the Excels being withdrawn, i for one and not buying the information posted on there as there are a number of mistakes on that Fleetlist, good luck with your site while am on about fleetlists!
