Wasnt the 90 for a long time the regular route for the primo because of some tight corners on the route
RE: Avon Buses - P450 SWX - 25/08/2012 07:34
The 3 Primo's where
YN56 NHA (456)
YN56 NHB (556)
YN56 NHC (656)
All 3 where aquired in 2006 for the origional 17 service when they took it over Mon-Fri from Ace Travel who ran it as A 117 but commercially hope this helps

As they put bigger buses on 17's and had no use for the other 2

Spotted either 922 or 923 at Penny Lane terminus this morning, presumably route training drivers for the new 183/4

I would have thought the opposite. As a tax payer, my understanding is that all revenue from Merseytravel services goesback to the PTE to provide more services. Everytime Arriva allow one of their passes to be used on a Merseytravel service how do we the tax payer get reimbursed? That's my £1.10 and I want it back.
In fact while we're on the subject Merseytravel, I want my evening bus service back.

922 broken down at Devon Doorway with fitter in attendance at 11am - it was gone 30 miutes later.

Just noted the Plaxton Primo at Allerton Road/Penny Lane Liverpool on driver training.
Almost got a photo but it left just before I got near enough! lol
RE: Avon Buses - N271CKB - 05/09/2012 16:04
Saw the primo on the 17/18 this morning, must of been booked off for something.
Be interesting to see if Avon make a success of the 183/4, it's operating with 1 bus less than stagecoach are using
RE: Avon Buses - P450 SWX - 10/09/2012 20:22
Anyone have any idea what was on 183/4?
