4029 has been withdrawn and will be used for spare parts, very odd considering theres nothing in to replace it
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - T42 PVM - 19/06/2013 06:32
4026 has replaced 4029, appears 4029 got a major fault and bolton dont think its worth fixing due to its age, another one bites the dust!

They should've driven that sluggish heap of garbage past the depot, and straight in the direction of PVS!
EASILY the worst DLA out there!
Bet the kids were late for school. And I bet the driver had a sore right foot!

right updates
3363 and 3364 look to been in service until September now
in september bolton depot have lost 5 schools and gained just 1
7615 is to be moved to st helens depot to be stored tomoz
7617 and 2249 are due out of the bolton fleet in a few weeks, i expect 7617 to be withdrawn but 2249 should find a new home, the buses have been withdrawn as bolton lost most of their tendered work they gained when maytree ceased trading
