Yes, the Gillmoss 10 are all still sitting on the back wall where scrap buses normally sit. Well they were on Sunday anyway.

Yes I seen 4902 leaving St Helens on the 10A at 1140 yesterday morning. I was very surprised to see it during the main daytime.

Clearly a desperate move by Rotheram to buy some votes.

I noticed a yellow bus with a Metro logo on it in Prescot at lunchtime.
Would that be one of the hydrogen buses?

It lasted that long lol.

Seriously though, I had my first experience of them today (4901 and 4903) and from a passenger perspective, they are great. Certainly a very high spec interior wise.

4590 had been transfered over to Bootle and in service on the 60. This is the start of slowly transferring vehicles over as more hydro busses enter service.

Whatever happened to the possibility of Runcorn gaining decker's for the 79C, I suppose this proposal eventually got shelved?
