2641 is no longer a Birkenhead bus
It is now a Chester bus and is on X2 today

Some excellent allicating from the boys in Birkenhead this evening including 7642 on the 407, and 2344 on the 432, while a Gemini was on the 403. Also of note, 7558 was alive and well on the 410.

Following on from the QBP introduction does the 407 operate seperately from the 471/2 now , previously the 407/472 interworked at liverpool.

If the 407 doesnt interwork this will be the poor relation when it comes to getting double deckers i suppose .

If the 407 has been separated, and I believe it has, then single decker operation should become the norm. Pulsars freed from the commencement of the Liverpool - Chester "Q"BP would be ideal.

Speaking of single deckers (as K853 MTJ mentioned a post or 2 ago)... 2344 on a 437/2/3 this eve, to which one of the passengers comments when it pulled up on Hamilton Street was "what the f*** do you call that shed, single deck on 437, b**tard!" - Clearly not a fan of single decks.

Not sure if its been mentioned, or even worth pointing out, but 437s and 432s now interwork on lates again.
I am no longer active on this forum.

That almost sounds like an enthusiasts comment that one.

I for one was made up when 2344 turned up. Fantastic bus, never had a Dart through the tunnel before, and with a nice fast driver, it was definitely an experience!

Does the 471/472 interwork anything evenings or sundays?
