With 4423 being withdrawn from Speke & 4401 not having tracked since the 8th of Jan does anyone know if 4401 has been withdrawn itself??

There is an image of 3198 on Flickr following it's repaint, it looks like it was freshened up with the headlamp covers additionally being painted blue.

Would have thought they would have gone into Mersey metro livery as there repainted similar to what Gillmoss are doing with there repaints

Why repaint into Mersey Metro livery when Arriva seems to be still waiting to see if it has got any franchising contracts ? It has already lost work in St. Helens & Wirral. We don't yet know what will happen in Liverpool & Southport.

Do you know when the Liverpool and Southport franchisees are to be announced?

There is no guarantee Stagecoach will win that.
