- The 410 seemed to have a variety of buses on there (I'm not sure what's unusual and what's not on there at the moment), including DAF/ALX300 V414 ENC (2414), DAF/Cadet X442 HJA (2442), DAF/ALX400 S277 JUA (4097) and Plaxton Pointer 2 R558 ABA (7558), along with the usual Myllenniums.
- As already mentioned, President Y46 ABA (4000) was on the 411 (it provided an enjoyable ride!), along with DAF/Cadet X426 AJA (2426).
- The 403/413 had DAF/ALX400 S288 JUA (4158) on it, of which was also on the 423 earlier tonight!
- The 432/433/437 had Plaxton Pointer 2 S848 RJC (2328) on it, which I rode and found it to be an OK ride (not too busy on-board, however the gearbox seemed to be a bit jerky...).
- Enviro400 CX58 FZO (4402) was out on the 495, however I seen it running out of service somewhere near New Brighton at about mid-afternoon (unless another 'decker of its type has a Chester Zoo back-end advert applied to it).

I had 2328 on the 432 yesterday too here is a pic i took! http://www.flickr.com/photos/78615476@N0...otostream/
