After yesterdays unsuccessful blurry shot (now deleted!) of 2345, happened to see it at New Brighton whilst driving past (yes, I parked the car first!).......

Which brings me onto my question, has anyone seen 2344 V574DJC recently, as I haven't, my current main photo target of the LS allocation!

Ta muchly!

2344 had a fittter on board it yesterday morning, Not In Service, returning to the depot.

Two Pulsars out today on the 492/5. With quite a number of other in the depot now including 3135.
3132/3/4 were all having Arriva names applied to them this morning.

Had a nice ride on 3127 (MX12 KVZ) on the 495 before, engine aren't as high pitched as the 59 plate ones, but there where few black marks on the back of some seats, all in all they all look pretty decent and a better ride than the others ive been on in the past

Very interesting that Speke want them, no doubt the VDL Cadets will be transferred away. Keep your eyes peeled folks, going to be an interesting few weeks ahead!

I have to say that I am very very surprised that Speke want these mylleniums as I was under the impression that they wanted rid of theirs, still I suppose that they have their reasons.
