Thanks for pointing the mistake out - I've edited my post to show it's a spare vehicle allocated to Green Lane. It's good to see that Arriva are putting it to good use considering it's still got eight months tax left and it's still got a long MoT as well. Definitely worthy of being the last member of its batch on the road in the combined North West and Wales divisions

Whilst I don't particularly like Darts I think 2345 is a decent bus for its age and certainly better than all of the X-reg Darts I have travelled on which apart from a few examples were poor at best

I can think of few X-ANC/AJA/OBN darts that are worse that than 2345 as well, 2224 & 2228 to name just two, there are others.

2254 at St Helens has turned into a right rattle box recently as well, Have to agree 2345 is a Good Dart overall

I posted a similar sighting on the Green Lane page a couple of weeks ago. Is this now being used for non-passenger duty, especially since it was also seen at LS today?

I think its a waste not using 2345 in Service when its got so long left on its Tax and MOT, More so when other Depots are loaning Buses to other Depots so they can cover their work!...
