The board comes off a 60 and the driver's break is at the Strand on that duty so I guess it depends who's driving. It has been an unwritten rule that deckers don't go on the 310 (they certainly won't be allocated on there) due to trees since there were incidents a few years ago. I have never heard of a rail replacement having issues on Winifred Lane though...

Been reported on Arriva NW Photography FB group that 2941 has today been taken for scrap (credit Daniel Anderton). Wasn't there a 297* pulsar damaged from an RTA a similar time, , did that one get fixed ?

Noticed before getting off 4419 that it has had something mysterious attached to the nearside front seat pole, is this some kind of tap on/off device before it gets transferred away next week?

Was it this? If so then yes it’s the ‘tap off’ ticketer reader for TOTO fares

RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
Is there a projected date for when the fleet movements at Bootle are due to happen please? I know from the 2023 cascade thread that around mid-October would be when they would be happening, unless the movement is happening either at some point this week or next week.

Are all of the CX58/MX09's leaving the fleet as well for Midlands, or are some being kept for I.E. P+P covers? Thanks in advance.

Only 2917/2926/2937 were reported as going in exchange for 3 13-plates from Derby. The remaining 58-plates and the Commander are going after P&P is complete.

This is interesting because I heard something about 2918 going over there.

As for the remaining 58s and CPF, I can unfortunately see them going but we also need to think about 2651 and how long that'll last, same with 2652/53 and the 58s from Speke
