The 403/413 does get good loadings especially as the frequency has been reduced, early Evening & Sundays until about 8pm the 423 could do with deckers.

But on the core section between Liscard and Arrowe Park Hospital there is still the same amount of services as before , if Arriva wanted to the vehicles could easily be moved back from the 414 to 413 , but this service open's a link that had not been operated for a while .

I've not used it as it, but passed it a few times very close to the 403/413

I hadn't seen a 414 until this week, and both I saw where the last of the day but both seemed to pick up reasonably well

Cadet 2641 has already arrived and was employed on the 403/413 service today, meanwhile one of the ADL Enviro400's was on the 437 with the other one remaining in the depot, although a poorly Volvo B5LH was on the 495.

All but one Geminis were out today with at least two allocated to the 464 with one being 4200 and two allocated to the 403/413 being 4202 and 4205 as well as all three Presidents.

The 414 seemed to be quite busy when I saw it throughout the day with most passengers travelling towards New Brighton rather than to the Hospital itself.

4421 is on the 464 and still has cross river branding on the rear panel between the decks

Probably not for much longer, 4422 is already at St Helens to be prepared for Wrexham. (Credit Motor Mayhem)
