3131 & 4525. 4525 had two sets now it has one.
4203 replaced 4532 on the 437/2/3, much to the disgust of passengers. 4201 is also working the routes.
There must have been a fault on 4532 that a driver has picked up on during the day , at least the passengers managed to obtain the services of another double decker it could have been worse it could of been a single decker.

I agree, passengers were saying 'there is nothing wrong with it.' Liked they'd know!

One thing with those Hybrids is some when going from electric to Diesel engine are very jerky indeed and others seem to do the change very clean with no jerking whatsoever.

It can often be down to how they are driven really. Far better than 4000 when changing gear.

Been told by many drivers that the Cadets are the nicest buses to drive with 2641 taking the lead.
Is there a reason Why Arriva don't serve Hoylake and why Stagecoach don't serve New Brighton or Wallasey?
