No, still no date on those. The open top service commences 24th May so depending on how many DLA open toppers are at Rhyl will determine how many of the Leylands are used. The main two Leylands that will be used will be 3984/7.

thanks just one last question how many envieo 400 will be branded as sapphire 12 and how many not branded
Its already been said a couple.
I think one or two posts have gone missing as a result of last night's downtime. As Jack says, it will be 18 with Sapphire branding and two without.

I have made up my mind to postpone my next visit to north Wales until these new Sapphire Enviro400s are in service. I suddenly like the idea that my first one will be a new one rather than a refurbished one like at Wrexham.

I am optimistic that Rhyl's Enviro400s will come before examples for Speke and Southport!
Does anyone know when is the 12 becoming a Sapphire Service???

July. Read back through the thread for more detail.
It seems that 4030 is currently operating out of Rhyl after a spell at Wrexham - photographed on the 12th today:

Replacing 4091 after Gearbox failure last week.
Reported on the Arriva North West Yahoo Group that 4141 has also been drafted in as 4140's replacement.
