Doing away with most of the centre aisle bit in the bs would be a big help making it easier
for buses to pass on the narrow lanes,but remember we are dealing with merseytravel
here so do not expect sense in high quantities

True Rob..

4414 taken off 437s last night at around 2230 at LS, replaced by one of the 'new' pulsars - a truely terrible enviro that one, probably the worst one in the depot speed wise!

Although 819 was on 471/72 last night, it had been taken off by 8pm.

1 missing 4536 ?


RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - V671 DVU - 24/02/2013 19:00

Presume that's going to be MX13 AAJ if the batch if following a similar pattern to the Pulsars?

OOPS.... apologies there is no 4536,all this mis-numbering


RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - CX54 DKD - 24/02/2013 20:23

Interesting to note that, after recent deliveries differing, the fleetnumber and registration are once again correlated. Explains why they're having to renumber everything as opposed to just renumbering what was 4491 to the end of the batch.


RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - Palatine II - 24/02/2013 20:32

Two Hybrids with the fleet no 4505 at LS, ooooops! Both parked at the back. Blue Bus MPD here too.
