Saw at least one out last Sunday Also one of them isn't referb'd but has its front end in Halton colours Hope this helps

There's one in Blackburn bus and coach yard. Didn't get the number though.

I deduce that all but one are refurbished and that some operate on Sundays. So yes thanks, this will help!

To get passengers to and from Widnes Town Centre (for connecting services and amenities) at a time when an area of over 2 miles would be unserved by any form of public transport.

It's not a busy service in any respect but I've been on some of the evening services recently and they are quite well used by shift workers and people who appear to be using the "Hive".
