A Picture I took of it in Southport yesterday...I believe its on again today

Interurban 2728 (Y728 KNF) B10BLE/Renown broke down near Hugh Baird College yesterday before limping to Bootle Strand.
The rear wheel (driver's side) looked like it was collapsed on its suspension, suggesting major air loss or broken suspension components.

Apparently, the B10BLEs are going soon; 'These old Volvos are due for replacement around March' said the driver. Hmmm...

Apparently, 2727 had air pressure issues today whilst on the 300 and was replaced by 2142 (same board as yesterday).

I'd love to know if 2728 is back on the road, it was listing quite heavily to one side when I saw it. Damage could be pretty serious....

Wonder what will replace them if they do go in march, more pulsars?

Pulsars seem to be the only single decker these days in the Arriva armoury unless you see a reshuffle around depots .

7639 is now parked up, withdrawn. And in a surprise move, 7652 is today transferring to Speke.
