Changing for a bus in Manchester may be ok for people who know there way around Manchester City Centre but how many people from Merseyside know there Manchester bus timetables and departure points , by the time they have found the bus stop they have wasted a bit of time which could be better spent in the Trafford Centre.
True, I don't know the timetables of buses in Manchester either, I know where the stop is though but in all honesty I think it is better just to go to the city centre rather than just the trafford centre.

i have my feeling it will not last and thats yet to be proven wrong, i feel the maghull-liverpool part will do well at just 2 pound however time will soon tell as the service needs to be very well broadcasted

This new X5 service starts on 1st December 2012 and operates on each Saturday before Christmas. Thereafter, it operates on the first Saturday of every month.

Called in to their depot today to drop some posters of for my World Record Attempt. Pleased to say they should be appearing on their buses very soon. However as I had to go in the back way two of their deckers now appear to be sporting their new livery with one closer to being finished than the other.

Kids gone back to school then?
0705 (S80 BUS) DartSLF/Pointer2 seen 20 minutes' ago, racing through Kirkdale on 52A-ORRELL ROAD SHORT JOURNEY route.
Pretty certain this is because PB do school-run work and they deliberately shorten their 52A route to book-off for school contracts.
Nice work if you can g£t it.
