Thought it was something to do with that but it’s 75 not 60, 60 is only for the crossing itself.

I wonder if the limit could be upped to 90 on the Chat Moss section or will works be required Ashley crossing being replaced with a bridge would allow the 60 limit to be removed.

Are a number of the ex Plymouth B7RLEs no longer in use at Bolton? they dont appear to have been in service for a few weeks.

Thought Metroline would need more than 100 to replace all the hybrids and B9s.

I’m very interested to see how many cross boundary routes currently run by a depot in Merseyside don’t end up being included.

Guessing the 375/385 isn’t included.

I do raise a good point, TfGM could drop the funding for the evening 22A with the 612 covering the busier part of the 22A & 360,all depends on if they want to maintain the Warrington link.

I’ve noticed only 4027 is currently in service out of the 61 plate E200s are these due to be withdrawn as well?

I think the 612 will skip Belvedere Road and Queens Drive and go straight down Crow Lane as the current 22 does but having it run the entire 34 route up to the railway station is a huge possibility.

34/34A does need a frequency increase I wonder if they’ll be timed in between the 612s would presume the 612 will be every 60 mins.

I am aware TfGM don’t have the power to physically withdraw the routes what I mean is Warrington & Arriva may give up the routes themselves as they might not get as much revenue as they did before, as already mentioned I do see Arriva giving up the 360 at some point.

I do wonder if TfGM have done this to replace the evening 22A and eventually the Wigan-Newton le Willows part of the 360 as I can see Arriva giving it up eventually.

Who’s likely to run the 612 and what vehicles are going to be used?

I wonder if these will go to St Helens on loan until more vehicles are ordered.

HTL have brought back ex demo and Ipswich SK07 DYA for schools although it’s technically not an original since it has the 6.7 instead of the 5.9.

I knew that I was wondering about the first couple of days in September before St Helens starts?

How will the St Helens school routes work during the first week of September as it seems pointless them running them with the current operators for just a couple of days.

Guessing all the O530s are going on schools?

Replaced by the 26 plate MMCs they had Merc engines the other Versas have Cummins engines, they also had reliability issues

Good chance they’ll return off lease once the last of HTLs routes go to franchising
