MP68BUS will revert to its old ref and returned to lease company very soon.

It’s had its main ticket machine taken off so is using a hand held spare one.

EX/TX21 ONE have entered service today. As most have probably seen, however these are 41 seat 10.8m Enviro200 MMCs which assist with capacity on the X1.

Main X1 fleet will be these 2, G17 and MP20 for future ref.

Good stuff. Do they have Allison gearboxes?

I'm not getting any results from searching this registration on Flickr and it is quite obvious that it has been registered recently, is the Cadet in question formerly registered 'YG52 CEN' by any chance? Recent images show YG52 CEN in a white and red livery. Or is it a different Cadet in question?

Noticed whilst waiting in Liverpool ONE Bus Station earlier today that MP20 BUS had a notice in the window saying 'Arriva tickets no longer accepted on this service', does anybody know when Arriva tickets were discontinued for the X1 or is this a recent change? Haven't seen it on any other buses in the fleet. Information is appreciated.
