Starter motor knackered on it so had to knock a bus off. Chester has 4 sightseeing buses however LX51FLR hasn't entered service yet for one bizarre reason. On arrival at chester depot it came with no paper work so the bus is VOR until VOSA get new paper work for it. I work on the boats on the river and I saw the RNW tow 17502 up souters lane which for anyone whos not familiar with the open top tour route it is narrow. very narrow.

Like the old days, that. In the dying days of Atlanteans and Metrobuses in Manchester with First there were several which wouldn't start without getting a fitter involved. The solution was to sellotape a sheet of paper with 'do not switch off' written on it over the engine stop button rather than fix the problem.

21251 was also back at Rock Ferry on the 1/2 today. Also, 21250 was parked in Liverpool (Victoria Street) at about 20:15, so not sure on whether that's back or not.
