Although its sad to see the scania's withdrawn as they are a nice vehicle to drive its good that st.helens seems to be becoming a all low floor depot, can only mean less complaints.

It's nice as well that some investment is being brought in again with the imminent arrival of the Optares

RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
Seems likely it was put on from the 20 to cover a late running 1042 on there.

It states in the latest edtion of Bus Fayre that 1052, 1058, 1060 & 1061 have been sold on to North West Bus Sales (dealer), Bolton, and all were quickly resold to Ripley (breaker), Carlton. This confims the fate of 1052 which I know has been queried here recently.
