Pretty sure that one was on the 375/385 this morning as I heard an Olympian in Skelmersdale Bus Station but I was outside on the lower ground, although many school services operate in the area so it could have belonged to one of those companies!

3336 (R336 WVR) Olympian/Palatine2 decker seen just an hour ago in Bootle on '692-SCHOOL BUS' route.

Looks strangely old-fashioned (in a world of low-floors, Interurban livery and LEDs) with its yellow roller blinds, red MTL seats and old livery.
It looks like time is finally running out for this 15-year old step decker

3319 (R319 WVR). It replaced a defective low-floor bus and was the only bus available in the depot at the time.

Hope it's back in the garage for my school run later!

Do Canning Road still have the facilities/staff available to provide (basic) painting services for their own vehicles (in this case 4106)?

4106 is fully repaired and back on the road. I've just had it on my school run.

At least two Pulsars are having a play out on the 300 today.
