I know this might have been covered months ago. It's just that I've seen some 160 routes in Formby replaced by routes in the F series eg F1, F2. I couldn't help remember Fareway having these numbers for Liverpool - Kirkby routes, in competition with MTL!

F for Frodsham in 1966; F for Fareway in 1987; F for Formby in 2016. I think that Cumfybus are now running the Formby routes without subsidy hence the change of number to give them local appeal.

For undisclosed reasons, TfGM could not award this tender. I think it was to be numbered 687 but I am once again open for correction if anybody knows of any information to the contrary.
