Wonder whether these E200MMC’s will be 11.5 (4cylinder) or 11.8 (6cylinder) examples? As far as I’m aware, there are no 11.8 6cylinder E200MMC examples with Arriva as a whole.

Depends what routes there going to be for as post above also says some N/E Streetlites are due

I would suspect with them being in 27** series there 6 Cylinder similar to the Enviro300s

I would have thought they be 21** series if 4 Cyllemder following on from older Enviro200s

No new buses are going to St Helen’s.

Birkenhead will get 16 new MMCs plus a batch of Streetlites from North East.

Birkenhead new buses launch November followed by Green Lane them Speke then Runcorn and finally Southport towards mid December.

Bootles new buses won’t start until next March and they will also get a batch of 71 plate eVoRas from Luton.

There is a above post saying southport are loosing Pulsars to Derby over next week or 2 so I wonder weather the first batch of Enviro200s or Streetlites for Birkenhead may get diverted to Southport first

Did these look like standard length ones?

It be intresting as there not Arriva liveried if Merseytravel will insist they only go on set routes

With St Helens being first area for franchising you would think all new buses would go there rather than scattered everywhere

I do wonder if Stagecoach Wirral and Gillmoss will start to follow suite with Arriva at Metro liveried newer buses

Does anyone know the reg plates or the New Enviro200s please

Can't quite make it out for certain but did look like YX or YY74LVK......I guess we'll know for certain this coming week as some have been mentioned as being delivered this weekend to various depots for familiarisation....
