The double decker fleet at Birkenhead seems to be getting on to routes which are normally solid single deck job's.

Is there a single decker reliabilty issue due to the recent warmer weather.

Extra double decker's wirralbus, needed for Mersey Ferries, so they end up on single decker routes as the Hybrids cover the double deck routes.

3127 was on the 2 this morning

They have let quite a number of Cadets go, not sure how many? around 8 I think, and only 4 Pulsars from Wrexham replaced them.
