st helens had one on demo as it got used on the 20/320,very nice and comfortable to drive in my opinion.Well worth trading darts for them.

The buses in question are 2793-2799 CX04 HRN/R/P, CX05 JVD, CX55 FAF/J, CX57 BZO Volvo B7RLE with Wright Eclipse Urban bodies.
Not sure about the 07 Pulsars though but could be 2656-2659 CX07 CUK/U/V/W.

Southport Darts are (at present) 2291-2294, 2343, 7568, 7636/7/51-6/73 which is 15 in total to be replaced, of which 7658 is classed as a loan so that makes 14 vehicles to be replaced- so throw 4000-4002 from Birkenhead (as mentioned a couple of months ago) into the equation makes the full compliment of 14 buses. PLEASE NOTE this is my own personal thoughts but will see if I can get confirmed for you all soon.

Are these buses all in the old standard livery?

Out of them all, only 2793 is in Interurban according to my list.

Thanks, wonder if they will be repainted with Southport being all Interuban now.....


RE: Arriva North West - Southport Depot - motormayhem - 16/07/2012 06:51

Fantastic news as the real open top tours are set to return to Southport by two of our original vehicles.
