RE: New Buses Orders
Going back to an earlier discussion in this thread, I believe the Monday to Friday daytime PVR of the 12/13 is in fact 19 buses, not 18. I could be wrong, but if it were indeed 18, there would be a puny turn-around time in Liverpool of just three minutes with little or none at the Stockbridge Village end. I simply don't think that is enough to keep the route reliable and you normally see at least one 12/13 bus laying over on Water Street at any one time. So, it looks like the order will be one Pulsar fewer than the requirement for the 12/13.

It doesn't pose a massive problem however. There seems to be a few Pulsars on the 26/27 on a daily basis and these could easily be diverted onto the 12/13 instead to give the latter a consistent allocation.
