It seems that Pulsar 2 MX59 JJU (3028) was very-unusually on the 345 today - even on the duty that operates the evening Skelmersdale, via the M58, journey!

Enviro400 MX09 LXE (4423) was unusually on the 53 and DAF/ALX400 S259 JUA (4089) was unusually on the 53/53A.

Cadet DK55 FXD (2519) joined DAF/ALX400s T303 FGN (4063) and S252 JUA (4082) on the 311 - very unusual trio of allocations there!

Thanks, I actually thought that it was 7660 but wasnt sure, the 52/A seems to be a real mixed bag lately.

I know - there's been some fun allocations on a daily basis lately! Things should settle down once the depot space is sorted, which should be very soon...

I unusually had Cadet DK55 FXD (2519) on my 311 this morning. Despite the driver driving quite slow, the bus kept stuttering between gear one and gear two and gear two and gear three. This bus has had gearbox problems for a while.

Also, Cadet CX07 CSO (2638) was on the 345 this afternoon - on the duty that does the evening journey to Skelmersdale (via the M58), too!
