"Changes contained in this edition:
The routes of both services are changed so they serve
Bancroft Road in Crow Wood. Some times are changed.
The Saturday service now finishes earlier."

Thought they might of left the 26/a alone for a while, wondering why its been shortened on a saturday. Saturday nigth always seems to get reasonable loadings.

Does anyone know what is going on with Halton they seem to be altering quite a few services in September and have got three more Solos from Blackpool Transport when are they due to be going as they seem to be doing a lot lately?


RE: Halton Transport - Raawwwrrr! - 10/08/2013 06:21

The "new" solo's left Blackpool the 26th July
Changes in September are usually down to the gain and loss of School Contracts

Posts have been removed due to their potentially damaging nature. Let's be mindful that rumours and idle gossip create issues for both the company and it's employees, please.

Hi, been inactive for a few days, dont know whats been spoken about so cant comment. Anyhow, has any one got a pic of the new solos, I presume they will be #58 #59 #60 and in the revised Halton transport livery.


RE: Halton Transport - Quackdave - 10/08/2013 19:18

You're probably right about the new Solos - although I imagine they'd actually look quite good in the more traditional layout worn by the rest of the fleet. We'll soon see!

On a separate note, does anyone here know why Myllennium Dart 51 is currently off the road? It was declared SORN in July.


RE: Halton Transport - J654UHN - 10/08/2013 19:35

They are just painting over the blackpool livery for now

The trial Evolution has gone now, as for 51 being of the road I am unsure why. Not seen it recently come to think of it. Its not the most reliable of Haltons ELCs tbh. I also would prefer the solos in the older version of the livery.
