Not that familiar with Hattons and was driving at the time but that appears to be the only one as per the fleetlist.

M89 DEW was in St. Helens today (11 Dec.) at about noon on the "Bingo" bus duty ("service 850").

At about half 3 in the afternoon you can see all 3 step Darts on Prescot Road heading towards Carmel College along with UVGs and/or the Marshall. During the day there is usually a step Dart parked up in the bus station on the Bingo Bus.

As for the ticket machines, I hadn't noticed they had changed but a couple of weeks ago they did seem to be having trouble with them and just waving the OAP passes on rather than swiping them or whatever it is they do.

Also, sure I read on here quite a while back now that the two Solos would be leaving, is this still the case or have plans changed? And is the H-GVM decker still here, haven't heard of it for a long time!


RE: Hattons Travel (Nip On Transport) - CX54 DKD - 12/12/2012 00:14

I'm fairly certain the decker is still in the yard though withdrawn. I'm sure r411 will be able to confirm though!

Can't make his mind up on the solos
And h139 gvm still here withdrawn


RE: Hattons Travel (Nip On Transport) - r411 xfl - 12/12/2012 17:07

We handed back a few schools contracts so drivers take buses and park up in a location that can't be told
So all buses r out but may not e on schools only staff shuttles

Thanks for the help guys! Nice to see them still plodding on!
Ive heard whispers that H139 GVM may possibly have been sold or will be sold on soon. Wait and see however!


RE: Hattons Travel (Nip On Transport) - r411 xfl - 12/12/2012 19:00

H139 gvm was for sale but found no buyers
