Very Nice but wait for branding and something, right?

One of the new Sapphire 362/575 Pulsars was on display outside Wilkinson's in Wigan today - don't quote me, however I THINK it was 2687. All new leather seats, different coloured dash board, fully 362 and 575 Sapphire branded and everything, it looked great! Big Grin I can't wait to see them in service! :P

It's supposed to be white, although it does look a bit blue/purple on some photos, and yes it's the standard front LED color for all new Sapphire buses and conversions.

Whilst we're on the subject of Sapphire, Jack Barnes has posted his blog post from the Sapphire Launch in Wigan today, http://www.thenorthwestbusblog.co.uk/2014/07/arriva-sapphire-adds-sparkle-to-bolton.html

Might just be a coincidence but I'm sure there was a driver called Jack Barnes that started at Stagecoach Ribble's' Bolton Depot and I think is still or recently retired from Arriva Bolton, lovely friendly bloke if ever you meet him

Not to be picky but "Company's St Helen's" is gramatically incorrect with only the prior requiring an apostrophe! Computer
