How do you know it was a Bootle one, could have GL's or SH's. Bootle aren't the only ones to have Pulsar 1's.

Most-likely this - Bootle's display "OUT OF SERVICE", whereas Green Lane display "Sorry/Not in Service" and St Helens display "Sorry Not in Service". Trivial, but that makes them stand-out when they can't be identified!

Didn't realise that they done this differently, I just don't take that much notice of that sort of thing.

St helens have 2 ways of theres displaying it
Set up 1
"Sorry Not In Service" on front
"Sorry not in service" on side
"Sorry not in service" scrolling on rear dest.
Set up 2
" Sorry
Not in service" on front dest
"sorry not in service" on side
"00" on the rear.

According to the Arriva North West Facebook page, 7669 is heading to Yorkshire Tiger after being repainted. (Sorry - didn't realise that this information had already been posted!)

7674 is still in service - seen in Netherton this afternoon at some point (can't remember when!).

Saw a new liveried Enviro 400 being towed along wapping by an RNW truck this afternoon was too far away to id it though.

Whereabouts was that as I seen an RNW truck passing Bootle Strand bus station at around 16.40. Probably dropped the bus off unless it was on its way to it.
