It's about time Arriva invested in the 300 and while there at it get rid of the remaining Darts. They are now past it and it's not worth refreshing them due to their age.

Is this one of those routes where the assets (buses) just get moved around because the big profits aren't there ?

I believe that they'll be entering service on Saturday (04/10). Not sure if there's a launch planned before or after this date (the Speke ones were launched after they entered service).
4101 was on the 300 yesterday evening
I gather that the refurb will be getting the 375/385 branding removed and repainted so they dont look tacky like the ex 47/48 branded pulsars do??
Was another new Enviro 400 delivered yesterday? I saw an Enviro 400 heading down St Helens road yesterday afternoon from the M58 towards Ormskirk.
There's 4 pictures on the Arriva facebook page of the Enviro400s, does anyone have a list of all of them yet?
Entry to service will be Saturday 11/10/14 according to the ANW Facebook page.
