Are the on lease? Only reason I can think if they are going.

Also, didnt I read that Bolton were due 5 more Pulsars, Runcorn was mentioned as they've got their new ones?

I've just had a look on the DVLA site and both 2558/9 were registered on August 5 2002, so I presume they were on a 10 year lease to Blue Bus, which transferred over to Arriva when they took over.

Ok, maybe five new ones or five of WY older ones.
possible
2561 and 2474 both broken down today, 3rd time in 9 days for 2561
The 09 plate pulsars came from Wythenshawe in the first place so they wont go back as they got replaced with new ones. If boltons down for getting some these will be them

If you read over the Runcorn thread, the ex-WY Pulsars ARE returning (and some already have) to Wythenshawe having been displaced from the X1 by the new 12 reg Pulsars. That's confirmed - they're not going to be for Bolton. However, the gas buses destined for Runcorn will also be displacing Pulsars as opposed to Cadets and the destination of these is unknown at this stage.
