Best bet is something has broken down , this was the only spare vehicle at the time available , whats the odds that it does last the full day but itself gets swapped out for something more suitable .

Saw 4201 on the 437 in Liverpool City Centre this evening

670 was on the 413 due to a bus shortage. This was because Cadets 2424 & 2432 have now been withdrawn from service even though nothing is wrong with them. (Merseytravels 15yr rule) Laird Street depot are now waiting for 2 buses to turn up from another depot. Not sure what they are or where they are coming from.

Could be 2 of the cadets that Winsford no longer need.

The 15 year rule only applies to Merseytravel tendered services.

Pulsar broken down in Birkenhead Tunnel, RNW are with it

Sometimes the 15 year rule is stupid at the end of the day a bus turning is better than no bus at all.There must have a few hybrids missing today with 4201 on 437 and 4204 and 4175 on 464.Also 4203 on 410/1

Where 2424 and 2432 DDA? (working side and rear dests?)

[i]As far as I'm aware the number is 6 and has been all along. Not sure if its changed recently though. According to Arriva's facebook page last year at some point they said March 2016

Thanks for that, 6 doubles in spring 2016 but what else has to be replaced around this time?
The Millenniums and some of the cascaded deckers? I wonder what will replace these?

Solo on 413 again this morning.
