Hopefully sooner rather then later. Would make sense doing it before they enter service if theyre going to do it.

3.15 on a Thursday means it was niether a 47/48/64 college bus. (If it was a Tuesday it could have been a 64)
Looks like some driver familiarisation/testing/college service training has been going on instead

I had the lovely #74 on a Liverpool 14 this evening (same as yesterday) and #72 on a Warrington 62.
Sadly however, after waiting 45 minutes for the return 62 (at 3.44PM) It was a no-show so instead I had to pay £3 from Warrington to Widnes on the 110 sevice, Wasn't to happy, niether was the other passengers who had to wait another hour!

When's the best time of day to catch the likes of the Capital's on a 14 long service? I've never actually had the chance to ride anything but the MCV's and Spryte's to Liverpool :-)

As far as I've seen, they're just allocated to anything on the day.

Here is V272 HEC that was out and about one most days last week.

Anytime after 4-5PM when the buses from the main routes go onto the school/college services and buses stored in the depot come out for the evening services.
But this could be any bus from an enviro 200 to an MCV also

Still in what I think was Line 4 livery from the days of the Metro branding.

I'm really hoping to catch one of the Marshall Capital's for a long bus ride soon!

I like Marshalls GWD but am not too keen on the moquette. I think I last rode a Halton example in 2006.
