423 already serves Hamilton Square station.

Also the 487 will no longer serve parkgate in evenings, but instead will terminate at Little Neston, Royal Oak. Which makes sense considering it runs there during the day.

Then the 487 becomes very messy on a sunday .

The 487 will continue with the Ness gardens / Parkgate split during the daytime and Parkgate sunday evenings .

I can understand the commercial logic of Parkgate Sunday Daytime , but if it isn't viable on a Monday - Saturday Evening why does it get a Sunday Evening service , that one is very strange .

What is a tow bus for? Is it practice towing or some sort of coupler between a tower and a service vehicle?
