The Solo when not needed for the Heswall route always seems to be on either the 492 or 495. I think those two routes are the routes to see if any of the buses coming off routine work are fit to go back into the main pool once again.

Have more cadets gone because there has been at least one decker on the 418/9 this week and there seems to be a reluctance to put mylleniums on instead?

Certainly a change in allocation, the Geminis & Presidents have been put in between the remaining Cadets on the 418/419 all week.

Is it the perceived length of the myllieums thats against them on the 418 and 419 as around the Bromborough Estate there is some very tight corners and a lot of very awkwardly parked cars to get round , its even worse when you come to the evening service 118 119 , aren't the double decker's shorter wheelbase.

4001 on 418/9 today(Friday)also 4526 on 413/4. Most of the mylleniums that are out seem to be on 410/1 but 2458 on 413/4. I havn't seen 2451 yet that supposed to be back at Laird Street

2451 is here though, was on the 495 a week or so ago.


RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - 2829 - 20/06/2015 08:43

4401 is here for 24 hour loan as 4201 is at Bootle for private hire work.

Seen two double deckers on the 418/9 today , this route is now a mix and match route .
