Great just what St Helens needs more darts and the return of the dreaded 7640.
Article on the Arriva website about the new hybrids for the 10.

in other news more JUA crap due to replace remaining step deckers and 3317 might of been withdrawn but i need to find out for sure

Do you have the full update of what's left BN? Photos of 2556/7/63/5 at Green Lane on the GL thread and 2559/60/2 on the LS one. Saw 2732 on the 534 this morning so it looks like they've managed to keep hold of the two Renowns!

as am told the ones at green lane are for service whereas the ones at birkenhead are sold to another company in scotland, 2271 is one to keep an eye on at st helens as that was unreliable last time i heard from it

in other news the land at bolton just needs the fence being put up then its open

Cheers for the update. Do you know if anything else has gone or is it just those DAFs and the two Darts to SH?
just the dafs and 2 darts, i expect 7621 to be withdrawn but not confirmed yet but that would make up the 10 buses

I take it 2564 has gone to GL as well?
7621 was parked on Bolton bus station today.

Think this is what will be the missing 4494 which was at Birkenhead yesterday (as 4493), as 4492/3 seem to be correctly numbered now.
