    Strange Merseyrail departure time

    Due to the introduction of the leaf fall timetable, I believe it relates to a TfW service or ECS move that requires Platform 7 during the evening.

    Liverpool City Region-Bus Franchising

    Liverpool City Region-Bus Franchising

    Mostly, although there will be standardisation, e.g. 38 becomes 438, 41 becomes 441 etc. 410/464/487 remain the same. Only exception is there is already a 107 and 407, so the 106 is renumbered 405 and 107 is renumbered 406 (I believe, could be the other way round). Only other clash is 81 and...
