LAST UPDATED 05/05/2008
All Northern Counties Olympians have been repainted into Network Warrington livery, as well as all Metroriders with the exception of 119 which remains in its yellow and purple Centrelink livery for the time being. A further five VDL Cadets have been acquired from Arriva Bus & Coach (Dealer) and as such do not feature the standard interior. Two of these will receive route branding for a new service to the urban village Chapelford, located on the old Burtonwood air base.
UPDATE FROM 19/08/2007
Twelve VDL Cadets [66-77] entered service around March this year. Withdrawal and disposal of step-entrance Darts continues, with only the five 9.8m length seeing regular service. Five ex-Arriva ECW-bodied Olympians have been disposed of, leaving (1)72, 173 and 174, all stored. All low-floor vehicles have now been repainted into Network Warrington livery with the exception of special liveries for 24, 27 and 53. The two former vehicles are in updated versions of existing special liveries, whilst 53 is newly painted into a scheme advertising Golden Square Shopping Centre. Metroriders 112, 115 and 121 are the first minibuses repainted into Network Warrington livery. The first rear-advert on a double deck vehicle for some time appears on former Dublin Olympian 159.
