Wythenshawe is definitely a feasible destination for the two Cadets as there are two T-reg Marshalls to replace there. Not sure about the Pulsars - I would've said Wythenshawe as well but there isn't a great deal that needs replacing there in the short-term.

Wythenshawe have tons of pulsars anyway

That's not the point, they may have loads of them but there's nothing there which needs replacing until next year at least once the two Marshalls have gone. But a few depots such as St Helens (I think St Helens are/were supposed to be getting them?) and Green Lane still have a lot of T/V reg Darts to replace before the year is out.

St Helens was mooted a long while ago and although it would be excellent to have some extra Pulsars on the allocation, I don't really know how likely it is. As a bit of an aside, whatever St Helens gets hold of to replace the T reg Darts really needs to be full sized; further SR sized vehicles wouldn't be appropriate.
The last reliable location I was aware they were destined was indeed Wythenshawe.

I haven't heard much with regards to the Pulsars, Wythenshawe was mentioned to me by a friend of mine who works at Runcorn a while ago but it has all gone quiet so we'll see.
Im also told 7642 is long term VOR here and it's not certain that it shall be going back onto the road.

Has the X1 route been changed in Runcorn recently only when I was on it on Saturday after coming off the Busway the driver went along Bridgewater Expressway to Runcorn Bus Station instead of the usual route along Astmoor Road and into the Bus Station that way
RE: Arriva North West - Runcorn Depot - K853 MTJ - 18/02/2013 08:09
Yes mate, that is the new route, think it was altered just before Christmas :-)
RE: Arriva North West - Runcorn Depot - Arriva3137 - 18/02/2013 19:03
X1 branded 3136 was on the 79C again today

Are all the cadets being replaced by ecocitys?
