Also think that some of the roads in Neston are easier for the Streetlites over the Pulsars especially the route from Little Neston to Neston Brook Street

I wouldn’t be surprised if more MMCs both Enviro200 & Enviro400 get ordered in the future once DB decides to sell or not but I hope no more steeetlites turn up they are really weird things.
Not the first time Arriva have brought less than a handful of vehicles, remember when they brought those Scanias for the 500 after they took over the route from Selwyns, they only lasted a few years before being shipped to the North East.

Remember Taxed doesn't mean much since it can be payed back if SORNed before expiry

Why is it good news? It’s 17 years old and well over the 15 year rule. It’s supposed to be a public transport system not a museum

Don't cry
Would you rather a 17 year old bus showed up or no bus at all? If it's in good mechanical condition and is safe for the public there's no reason not to keep it running
Yeah ...the thought did go through my mind...just nice the way decent old buses keep on going...havent got not much interest in new stuff if im being honest. Lol ...no character. Was just pretty happy to see it had been re taxed..not a bad thing by the way !
Do you have an interest in buses 1466 ? Just wondering .....
4211 was on 410/1 on Monday, good to see it's still going strong.
