Noticed there are a few yellow solos parked where the old red rider depot used to be in moreton. Couldnt get a good view from the main road, are these cumfybus related?

I believe Cumfybus are moving out of their current Wirral depot by Birkenhead North station into the old Red Rider depot in Moreton.

Think there were 3 or 4 solos there, but didn't look room for much else, but was bit hard to telk

This news also marks yet another era for the 130/210/250. I'm hoping that the next company who owns those services will be much smarter than this company, which fails a lot in the smartness category, and, like Cumfybus have done, operate to timetable at all times. As suggested by the latter, Cumfybus have ran the 130 very well - they've always showed up for me!
Cancellation Accepted: Operating between Old Run and Dingle given service number 130 effective from 12-Aug-2012.

Cumfybus route 139 is being extended (on alternate daytime trips) to St Helens from 1st July, replacing the withdrawn Stagecoach route 70.

Quality of service counts for nothing these days mate, its all about money as far as Merseytravel are concerned! If they don't give a crap about so called Quality Bus Partnerships, then they definitely wont care about who operates a contract, if its cheap, theyre happy, regardless of quality of service, as Supertravel proved for them!

That is very interesting! Nice to see the residents of Whiston having a direct service to St Helens again. Hopefully these workings produce one of their deckers. It would be great to ride a decker in St Helens again!

I'm really intrigued to know who the next company to run on the service will be now - hopefully they'll be reliable AND smart!

Rumours suggest Impera, which will be very interesting if true! Be nice to their SPDs over this side of the water! Would be something different!
