Nobody has said Arriva are buying any streetlites. They are having one on demo that is it.

I had 4103 from Ormskirk to Southport yesterday - there was a stong burning smell on the top-deck when we boarded (when it'd been idle for a few minutes), but it was gone when it left Ormskirk. I wonder if it was related to it cutting out...? Anyway, I got a photo of 3319 leaving the depot:

Also, 47/48/48A-branded Pulsar 2 MX10 BZV (3036) was on the 43/46:

The Wright Streetlite will be a door forward version. It will be restricted to daytime local boards as it won't have an assault screen. One of Southport's Pulsars is returning to Ballymena in exchange to have some experimental tweaks done for performance.

It has been suggested that the planned arrival of vehicles from Bangor could be changed as they have too high mileage. More info as soon as available.
