One of a pair of Alexander Dennis Enviro 200 MMC's operated by MP Travel in special liveries to commemorate the 50th Anniversary of the Runcorn Busway.
This one carries psuedo Crosville livery with the addition of an orange band to signify a vehicle allocated to the Busway and was carried by National 2's and Bristol RE's back in the day. The other vehicle carries the final North Western livery from the British Bus era.
Originally taken to operate the X1 service between Runcorn and Liverpool, the service was withdrawn in March 2022 due to falling passenger numbers. With no work for the pair of new vehicles, the saw use on Rail Replacement and fill in journeys on the B52 works service, as seen here.
This would be its last week in service, and by the beginning of May both had returned to Mistral off lease.

September 2020 was when W17 gave up the ghost. A fire caused by a faulty alternator destroyed the bus in a matter of minutes.
It is seen here in the yard on the morning after the fateful blaze.

If you look closely in the background you can see the approach light for the Levy signals, supposedly the signal has high voltage resulting in a very bright signal.
