3322 as now been removed from the back of st helens depot more then likely for scrap.

Unlikely its for scrap, the book value is still too high for them, may have gone to North West Bus Sales.

3335 has sadly made it's way to Barnsley, this can be seen on Andrew Stopfords flickr page and bus looks pretty intact. I would put a link but I can never get it to work so must be doing something wrong.

Thats the one, if I remember rightly this had a major engine problem.

Sorry to be a pest but does anyone know what happened to the three Southport(well Laird Street) Palatine II examples with the back windows? Last I heard were they was up for sale down south with a dealer. I guess nothing's changed?


RE: Ex Arriva NW Palatine II's - P450 SWX - 08/11/2012 00:22

0303 and 0305 eg N303 and N305 CLV i believe are with South Glos bus and coach or someone in all over yellow with 0306 N306 CLV

how ever 0304 N304 CLV with back window got scrapped years ago after having a crash after being rebuilt

the only 3 with wear windows where 0303/4/5 N303/4/5 CLV
hope that made sence


RE: Ex Arriva NW Palatine II's - P450 SWX - 08/11/2012 00:25

No, 0303 (N303 CLV) is now private plated as vil8681 and is with Blakewater coaches.

0304 (N304 CLV) was written off at LS and was scrapped.

0305 (N305 CLV) is as far as I know, still with South Glos.

I know all the LS based ones, not sure about R plates, somebody else will help with that!
