RE: Arriva Bootle - Y961 XBU - 31 Jan 2014
Yesterday i have Marshall Capital Dart on the 345 trip that continues to skem, not bad for a bus ready to retire!
RE: Ace Travel - Y961 XBU - 31 Jan 2014
was able to catch the last 264 from Huyton - Halewood last night and had Enviro 200 MX12 CFE, I thought the route it took was great and the driver was very friendly having a laugh with us all the way! He even allowed me to get a photo of the Bus! real credit to the firm!

Not a bad bus, been on it once during its short stent at Runcorn.
RE: Arriva St Helens - St Helens Rider - 01 Feb 2014
Shame it's been repainted as the Trafford Metro livery is quite smart.

I am glad a managed a ride on it then yesterday - didn't look or sound like a vehicle ready for withdrawal (would say some of the Darts look/sound like they are ready for going though!).

RE: Arriva Runcorn - HaltonMiniMarshall - 03 Feb 2014
Wright Cadet 2536 appeared to have been involved in a minor rtc today near vicarage road at about 14:00, damage didn't look to bad but a panel just above the headlights was bent and out of place. The car it hit was only small (fiesta I think) and the police were in attendance.
RE: Halton Transport - HaltonMiniMarshall - 03 Feb 2014
Halton have taken over operating the 200 today! This is 14 days earlier than expected. They don't seem to have aquired new minibuses as promised yet, but they have started operation early so they may be coming in due course. It is possible that they have taken over early due to the fact that one of Ashcrofts vechiles which operates the route was involved in a serious collision last week meaning they could be short of vechiles to operate the route. I haven't checked VOSA yet but I will check soon.
