7652 is on '81A-BOOTLE STRAND' route today.
I notice its destination displays are of the traditional Speke-type with letterings ALL IN UPPER CASE.
As seen here on route 75....

Good pics, great to see 7652 still hard at work. Good Marshall that will hopefully get saved.

Had 7652 on the 81 this morning, pleasant surprise this one, none of the shake rattle & roll that you would normally associate with most Marshalls. Hardly any rattles at all, good turn of speed and an all round nice tidy bus, certainly one that you would be sorry to see go for scrap at the end of its service days.

Has 7652 departed then?
RE: Arriva North West - Speke Depot - Official - 29/01/2014 18:28
Most recent arrival at Soeke is Gemini 1 LF02PZK freshly refurbished too
RE: Arriva North West - Speke Depot - H101GEV - 29/01/2014 22:20
Can anyone confirm if these two cascaded deckers are actually for long-term use at Speke or just for the upcoming Formby - Southport rail replacement?
