RE: Route History
Reading through this thread again finding it fascinating, looking at the post d-reg 47 Pier Head-Netherley, the route was via 86 to Upper Parliament Street, then went down Lodge Lane, Ullet Road, Smithdown Road & via current 174 to Belle Vale, although it didn't do the loop through Woolton, then via 79 to Netherley, this replaced the old 79A Childwall Fiveways-Belle Vale.

73 still operated after d-reg became Central Bus Station-Woolton, not sure when this was withdrawn

Funny when i look at old maps & timetables looking at long gone or abandoned terminuses, Georges Dock Way was used LCPT/MPTE era which was an overflow to the Pier Head, mostly for routes 73/73A/73B/79A/79E, nowadays the start/terminus for MTT running day Longview for 9C/10D/34/45 long abandoned but turning circle is still there, that's a taxi rank, as is Northern Perimeter Road in Netherton, where the 30/30A/55/A1 started/terminated

A1 was Netherton-Aintree Station, feeder service for Merseyrail
