Green Lane are lower on buses due to the loan pulsars being away and some of the DAF ALX300's departing for scrap.

Green lane will get the Myllenniums from Speke when the new Enviro 400s arrive for the 86/86A it shouldnt be much longer now.

Some of the Mylleniums seem to have been tightened up recently, one or two with bad idle vibrations have been improved and some of the more rattly ones are now less rattly. Probably told to improve them before they move them on.

Those mylleniums seem to have been around a few depots in there time , so Green lane is now liable to be there final resting place , some people don't like them but I always thought they filled a hole at the time they where ordered .

I thought that the mylleniums had only been to three permanent deopts with those being Speke, Laird Street and Bolton. Have they been elsewhere for longer for a few weeks.

Speke (2001 - w/c 8th July 2014)
Birkenhead (2001 - 2012)
Bolton (2005 - current)
St Helens (2014)
Runcorn (2013)
and soon to be Green Lane (2014 - 2016)

I do remember seeing a photo around 2003/4 of the christmas supported service 212 being ran with a Myllenium, but at this time the christmas day service was run by Green Lane and Speke bi-yearly, so was likely to still be a speke native.

Ah Runcorn, forgotten one or two spent a period there last year completely slipped my mind, but permanent homes before they go to GL was the three I mentioned.

The mylleniums have made good emergency cover vehicles for garages suffering vehicle shortages
