As done by Dave Spencer at PMP and would have probably been out on VHS at the time. I think he has now put all the old Liverpool onto DVD's - not into advertising but that is a purchase I would definitely recommend. Fantastic time and so much more interesting than what we have today.

RE: Old Liverpool Routes
The 109 would have been Rainhill Stoops - St Helens.

Just re-edited it, & there was 2 109s.

76 was a different route by then[the route i remember] it followed the 79 to Belle Vale then the 192 to Huyton & 75A to Whiston Hospital, but didn't go through Prescot but followed the 10A to St Helens then to Billinge.

Another thing the Crossville Liverpool area routes scaled back or withdrawn due to the closure of Liverpool depot, also this was when North Western banned Saveaways from there routes, so Merseybus covered some North Western Routes to give Saveaway coverage.

RE: Old Liverpool Routes
The 7 was Odgens first route (was replaced when the 14 was introduced). Shearings were very interesting - they had the H8/H9 covering old Crosville ground (eventually extending the 50 and 651 to Huyton) and indeed the 50 and 651 were very interesting routes as well as eventually doing local routes 12, 51, 53, 55, 61 and 72 in the St Helens area.

It is interesting to see the amount of varied and interesting routes back in those days - a lot of which has been lost or is now totally unrecognisible these days.

Does anybody know when the Halton 61 was extended through to Liverpool?

I know it was extended to Huyton in early 1987 following Crosville's demise in Liverpool but am unsure of when the Liverpool extension was introduced. A wild guess would be around 1989/1990.

I was in Roby College in 1989-1990 and it was going through to Liverpool then as I got it every now and then for a change.

I think was a phased extention though, every other journey to Liverpool with the journeys inbetween terminating at Huyton at first.
