(08/04/2013 14:10)bolton bus basher Wrote: 3 buses at least are in the fleet
7617 in from WY for the extra work load
4016 and 4017 are also in from WY but for the school fleet to replace 2 more step entrance deckers.
more buses due soon
in other news the 714 is being ran by MPDs
I had a feeling that 7615/7/32/76 would be the four extra from WY with the step deckers being replaced with surplus DAFs from Bootle now they are getting the Enviros from Birkenhead....
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - T42 PVM - 08/04/2013 14:17
i did expect the same myself, hope they bring 7632 back as that used be a good bus when it was here last time
apparently 4020 is also here but unconfirmed on this one as of yet.
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - T42 PVM - 08/04/2013 14:50
4020 is confirmed to be here and 4022 is also here
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - H101GEV - 08/04/2013 14:55
There is no 4022. Do you mean 4012?
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - T42 PVM - 08/04/2013 14:57
text says 4022 but if theres no 4012 i will chase that up now mate

Didnt realise the hybrids had full rear displays they seem very low capacity buses what is the seating capacity of them?
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - H101GEV - 09/04/2013 16:34
There are 66 seats in total: 43 upstairs and 23 downstairs.
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - SLTRegular - 10/04/2013 02:32
How does that compare to a dla for example?
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - CX54 DKD - 10/04/2013 03:07
Check the fleetlists. DLAs are 45 up, 23 down giving a total of 68.
Complaints were made about the lack of downstairs seating on the DLAs so given the same lower deck capacity, complaints were inevitable regarding the Hybrids.
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - T42 PVM - 10/04/2013 09:38
i think the hybirds will do nicley on the 10 as the demand only suits a low seated decker as you only get around 8 people stood up per trip
