4123 out on the 82 today. Believe one of the Cadets is also on the 500.

Almost entirely deckers out today, with the 78 the only single decker route. I believe a Commander replaced a Gemini on the 80A during the early evening, but it was all deckers otherwise.

It was nice to see a fair few of the B7TL/ALX400s still making it out on a Sunday, with 4127 and 4129 on the 81, plus 4116, 4117 and 4128 making a full complement on the 500. The 699 was also up and running, with 4121 one of the three buses in action here.

Geminis were the dominant force as normal, working the 75, 76, 79, 80A, 82 services and the remainder of the 81 duties. The 86A had its usual Enviro400s in action.

saw 4573 in town this morning without wifi stickers

4110 on the 82 and 4122 on the 79/79D today, while regular double deck working on the 76 was filled by 4468.

At least three ALX400s were on the 699 (4112, 4120 and 4125) so I imagine the norm on this route during weekdays will be a mixture of these and VLWs.

Mid morning yesterday the five 699 vehicles were 4112, 4115, 4124, 4125 and 4127. No Geminis around save 4203 on the 60. 17 of the 19 Enviro400s were in service on the 86/86A. 4569 and 4572 were missing.

Thanks for this. Could someone summarise the current allocations of the London Geminis 4200 - 4214? Is 4203 a loan to Bootle or are there others? Are 4206 and 4207 both at Speke now? Despite several visits to Bootle I cannot pin down 4214. Is it still there?
Thanks for any info.

4214 is still at Bootle, 4203 could have been a mistake as may have been 4208, I certainly haven't seen sight of 4203 on a Bootle service.
