Perhaps Speke sorted out the problem

No, they were done after they left Speke

Streetlites to arrive in July and will receive Crossriver branding.

Are these for the 487?

Here is a piece from Laird Street's newsletter. Note the incorrect spelling of Myllennium and StreetLite...

It'll be good to see Cross River Single decks! I wonder what the livery will be like, will they be like the hybrids livery I wonder?

I imagine they will be in the standard livery. The last single deck bus to have cross river branding was 2448.

There is a chance that these StreetLites could receive the hybrid livery, as Arriva's recent deliveries of WF StreetLites to Luton and Tunbridge Wells - and StreetLite Maxes to Arriva North East - have received the hybrid livery, as well as branding advertising the eco credentials of the Micro Hybrid system.

I can imagine them looking smart in Hybrid livery, although they'd look nice in Interurban with the additional branding. They'll be a nice addition. It'll be sad in a way to see the Mylenniums finally depart.

Myllenniums and StreetLites to replace the Cadets. 16 new Enviro400s coming next year to replace Myllenniums, Geminis and Presidents.
