4031 has been withdrawn to be followed by all the other Daf DB250's as we receive the B'7s.

Copey will it just be the B7s & 4215/16 for winsfords decker fleet?

Also now 4104 is here, rumour I've heard off a driver is that the centros are poss off to wales??? Then we get new or 2nd hand single decks for the 84s?

Be interesting if its true as the 84 duty particularly needs bigger vehicles as a centro is always wedged from chester particularly around 4-6pm.

It will indeed be the Ex Southport B7's and 4215/16 for Winsford's decker fleet.
Don't really want to speculate about the 84's as things seem to change all the time but I still think the intention is to supply deckers to the 84 in the new year.
4216 has arrived back from the body shop and is currently being prepared for MOT.
Two more ex Southport B7's are due to arrive this week sometime.

4104 on the 84 today


RE: Arriva North West - Winsford Depot - 33109 - 21/10/2014 11:00

Cracking stuff copey, gd to hear 4216 will be returning at last. Seems its been gone for ages!

Deckers for the 84s deffo sounds like a cracking idea, however what'll replace the centros if they leave? Just wait n see s'pose mmmm hahaha.


RE: Arriva North West - Winsford Depot - 33109 - 21/10/2014 18:29

Copey any idea as to what duties 4104 this wk plz? Particularly will ot drop onto the 31/37a as that'll give it a proper workout.

MX12 KVE (709) was on the 84 this morning. Lets hope it wasnt too busy today, if it stayed out all day that is.
