The 59/60/61 all interwork at some point, so moving one of those services would create massive issues that'd involve a lot of sorting out. Moving the 62/62A/62B and the 68 wouldn't cause such issues; there are even some 62 journeys that start and/or finish near Green Lane depot (that HAVEN'T been amended since Bootle took on the service - take from that what you wish...)! The 68 will probably be sufficient enough anyway, however we'll soon find out!

Regarding fleet movements, I'd transfer Plaxton Pointer R604 MHN (2104) and Plaxton Pointer 2 R569 ABA (7569), along with the five ALX200s. Then I'd send however many Marshalls are needed to fill the remainder of buses required. After all, that's what's (basically) currently used on the service anyway (bar DAF/ALX400s, which aren't really needed on there).
