RE: Route History
The 441 was part of a short lived Arriva/First bus war, in 2006-07, 441 was Birkenhead-Bromborough Cross covering First 41/42, Arriva had a 470 Birkenhead-Arrowe Park Hospital via Woodchurch, First responded by introducing a 32/33 via the 432/433

I forgot about the X11, that became the direct route, via A41, ended up being withdrawn

There was a 447 Overchurch Road-Chester via Ellesmere Port[went via Grace Road in the Port], this was renumbered from 442 Overchurch Road-New Ferry & extended to Chester, i think this became 402 on a revised route

Also 418/419 was extended from Mill Park to Cheshire Oaks via Ellesmere Port which covered the Arriva 404 in the Port, didn't last long thogh
