didn't last long, not on there 3-4 o'clock,all cadets except 4202

Do not forget that the 492 and 495 services seem to be the depots test route .
Anything that Arriva Birkenhead has at its disposal seems to find its way on to those routes this includes Hybrids and Solos , which are considerably different in size.

I hope more come to replace the Cadets

2505 was here for an MOT, but due to a bus shortage it found itself on the road. The reason it was on the 492 is due to the fact it can be taken off easily.

You never know what will on there next, a stagecoach vehicle maybe while waiting for a mot ,joke?Why are Laird Street short of vehicles?
RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - MX12CFE - 01/12/2014 06:48
Commander 2505 only worked from Laird St for around 4-5 hours then made its way back to Speke.

Indeed, it was apparently there for MOT but was chucked out in service for a short time due to a shortage of vehicles.
RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - wirralbus - 01/12/2014 08:44
It does make you wonder what would happen if Laird Street did not have all these other Arriva buses coming to it for MOT , the place sounds like it has constant vehicle shortages.
The adage is don't give other depots vehicles if you can't keep your own fleet constant .

The things is if they are short of vehicles why did they let St Helens have 4200.
