Reasonably unusual sighting of 2721 on the 10B late this afternoon.

That started the day on the 6/7. 2720 was on the 14. 2217 which started the day on the 12/13 found it's way onto the 6/7 by mid afternoon replacing 2718.

Does anyone know what caused the delays on the 6/7 yesterday? The bus which I was waiting for at Edge Lane (7665) was due at 15:12 and didn't turn up until 15:30. You could tell the driver was in a rush because he wasn't even signed in to his ticket machine when he pulled up at the stop! Delays generally got worse along the route, as the (very polite) driver didn't really get a move on and we got held up in traffic around Broadgreen Hospital, very odd indeed!

Anybody watching Fake Britain about the collision between a bus and a car in Dovecot where the bus driver was part of the scam, didnt know about this so interesting, Not certain whether GL or St Helens but they were at GL, anybody know when this was as it has been dealt with by the courts.

It was a Green Lane bus, I remember a person was looking at the CCTV pictures of it and it shown a P-HEM Scania interior on the computer screen. Yeah it has been dealt with, read in the Echo a few months back and I think all three of them got jailed. It was 2009 when it happened, and 5306 has accident damage repairs at a similar time so my guess would be that was the bus involved.

Thanks, the bus driver got 2 years I missed what his accomplices got, cant believe he done it knowing the amount of cameras on buses these days.

Rancid 7623 failed in Huyton bus station at the exit lights on a 6 bound warrington
was replaced with 3052 they keep putting these things on the 6/7 while there are pulsars
running around the belt on 26/27 makes me

RE: Arriva North West - Green Lane Depot
That's interesting, I had 7623 on the 6 from Warrington earlier in the day and it performed very well indeed, no signs of any faults. I do agree though the 6/7 needs better buses than Darts, it's a demanding route. Unusual sighting, 2721 was on the 12/13 today.
