Loads of Trident2/Enviro400 deckers on City Centre-bound routes this Valentine's Day, although I can't understand why.
Is Saturday an unusually busy day for the 52/53/55 routes, or are Bootle trialling these ageing 58-plate/09-plate deckers in preparation for the new 15-plate deckers due in the next few weeks?

If you don't like deckers it's not really a case of love at first sight, it's more like like-it-or-lump-it!

Ageing 58/09 platers, really I wouldn't call them old right now. The powers that be have decided deckers would be better, lay out the cost now but save in the long run with a service cut. As for whether people like deckers or not, they won't be complaining when they can get on the bus, rather than being left behind when a pulsar or the daily dart on the 52 is full.
