Condor 0702 (S80 BUS) replaced Solo 0101 (Y1 BUS) on the 4/4A around lunchtime today, the latter appearing to have come to minor grief against some roadworks, being parked up in the bus station with a smashed quarterlight, skirt panel damage, and a couple of squashed traffic cones wedged under it - though bizarrely I couldn't actually see any roadworks anywhere nearby! RNW's Mercedes-Benz Actros DG61 CBF retrieved it mid-afternoon.

Whilst the damage didn't look too serious, I imagine there's a reasonable chance of the Condor being out again tomorrow - just in case anyone wishes to catch up with this moderately unusual vehicle.

Saw a red unbranded Gemini followed by a PeoplesBus liveried Gemini going down Eastway in Maghull yesterday. Presume route learning for when the Schools go back? Thanks.

Noticed this afternoon Peoplesbus are now on Bus Times


RE: PeoplesBus - ant17612 - 26/01/2021 13:18

Further arrivals since last update are Enviro400 LK09EKO the former Metroline TE931 as well as Dublin Bus B7TL's CN56RSO (06 D 30574) and CN56RUV (06 D 30577).

All Gemini's appear to of left the fleet and 2 of the first intake of Enviro400s are now registered N800BUS and L80BUS.

Is there a list or a website available that shows the previous registrations of the batch of Enviro400's that were previously with Metroline? I have an image of X10 BUS that I took back in November but unable to find it's previous registration. I know some of the previous registrations are on the PeoplesBus fleet list section of this website but only a couple had registrations updated by the time the fleet list was last updated in the summer.

Also, passengers on the 4/4A service with a concessionary pass will be allowed to use the service prior to 9:30 if they are travelling to a COVID-19 vaccine centre, they need to show their vaccination letter to the driving when boarding.

No definitive IDs I'm afraid, but a few educated guesses.

If it's correct that they have only ten of the SN09 batch, then we can safely assume that X30 BUS is SN09 CEV. This is because its most recent registration document was issued 05 Jan 2021, and most fortuitously, I had queried DVLA the day before, 04 Jan 2021, and had found that only CEV (out of CDZ/EA/O/U/V/Y/FA/E/K/P) was still registered as such at that point (but has since disappeared).

Similar logic puts L80 BUS and N800 BUS (reregistered on 04 Aug 2020 and 06 Aug 2020 respectively) as SN09 CFK and CEA, because the other eight were still found under their original regs when I queried them in late August. Due to the dates first registered (L80 BUS = May 2009, N800 BUS = Apr 2009), I presume L80 to be CFK and N800 to be CEA.

X10 BUS I suspect to be CEO, based on comparing trivial details in photos such as window and door stickers, rubbers, the alignment of the front panel, etc.

N400 BUS is the only other one with a date first registered of Apr 2009 (the rest are May) so I guess this one to be CDZ.

The other five are anyone's guess! But if anyone has any photos, please do publish them, as they may help.
