Doesn't Laird street still do rail Replacement work on behalf of Merseyrail , could the extra three vehicles be for this work , meaning the mainstream double deckers don't get used on this sort of work.

That's exactly correct! The three 'rail buses' were once 3306 - 3308 then 4096/7 and 4143, followed by 4000 - 4002.
