Christmas and New Year Services: The Reckoning
Several people have posted on various threads how well or badly the bus services have been so far this festive period around this region and beyond. I thought that it might be useful to set up a new thread for this purpose so that such opinions and views are on one thread.

The point I would like to make concerns Arriva's operation in north Liverpool. Again, as with last year, Green Lane provided the vehicles which were all single deck (Pulsars) and again they did not seem to cope with demand on the 52A and 55. The two I saw about midday heading towards the city both had standing loads by the time they reached Tescos in Litherland. I cannot comment on how things developed later in the day. Next year when Green Lane has its new deckers perhaps these will be used.
