Happy New Year to you all. A visit to Warrington Interchange today saw Wrightbus Eclipse Gemini bus No: 301 Reg: LJ04 LGC working an inbound service 16 now in the latest livery which has been adapted slightly to make the most of the double Decker Hight.







Very sad news today as Halton Transport has ceased trading.  Wishing all the best to the staff in finding new jobs.  As a tribute please see here my pencil drawing of the last type of new bus bought by Halton an MCV Evolution/Enviro200.
