I'm only going by a comment which was made on this flickr pic:

Probably just for the upcoming rails? Be nice if they were for service though!

Ah yeah, possibly.
I agree that it would be nice if they were for service. 12 and 13 come to mind!
The unregistered Pulsars will be the remainder of the batch that were due last year 3159-64.
Maybe there doing the M.O.T's or checks on them as there are 5 at st helens for thst reason.
The fella who said they were at Green Lane has said that the 5 deckers are for the 12/13/15 with 3159-64 replacing the DAF ALX300s.
Excellent. Well overdue.

Five deckers though is a strange number to be allocated , will more be coming ?
If these are ex London Gemini's according to Arriva 4208-15 are yet to be allocated.
The deckers currently sat in Green Lane are for Wales, not GL. One of which is VLW23
However, it has been rumored but not official that GL may be getting deckers this year (Secondhand), primarily for the 15.
