I saw driving behind 2638 on the 54 yesterday at about 12ish, also saw 4434 on the 55 along with a 58 reg one.

Pulsars were even appearing on 54 & 58 today, 61 was just full of darts apart from maybe one enviro, one pulsar and 2517, 60 has 2234 on, so Bootle probably quite rightly looked to have prioritised City Centre services today. As an aside, driver who took over on my 61 with 2227 wasn't too impressed to have it.

Drove through Crosby & Waterloo today, plenty of Enviro400's in use on the 53, 4417/23/25 noted in a short time on Oxford Road & Mount Pleasant.

Old-livery 3998 (C212 GTU) Leyland Olympian/ECW open-top decker is here at the moment, expect it to go back to Rhyl soon.

Good job they changed the fleet number from 3122 to 3998, as the newer 3122 (a 12-plate Pulsar) is also parked-up in the depot!

I know which 3122 I would rather have though.

Aye, and I bet the older one doesn't have a rattley rear parcel shelf, nor an irritating handbrake alarm every time the doors are opened!
