RE: Arriva North West - Green Lane Depot
Had a mooch around the back of Green Lane this afternoon, two more examples are now here, One of them I was able to identify as YY74 LWA

4669 is parked on the back wall and has been stripped of some parts, so I'm not sure what's going on with that as it's plastered with 'Do not remove parts' notices

Do we know what routes these will be getting allocated to?

2766 YY74LWA, 2768 YY74LWD and 2769 YY74OAX all present at Green Lane this morning, 2769 observed being delivered. I would assume 2766-2775 will be the Green Lane batch given that Birkenhead's finish at 2765

YY74 OBC (2774) was observed on Dwerryhouse Lane on familiarisation/route learning when I was heading back from a bike ride.

Weirdly 3 of the new MMCs are on the 10B, one of which was taken off the 7 at Huyton

More on the 7 today, i assume they were mainly on the 10B yesterday to keep them nearer the depot in case of any teething issues.

They were on the 10B simply because the boards they were allocated. Not all drivers have been trained yet so if an untrained driver for example is on a 7 and this is allocated to a new bus then the bus will be swapped around.

The plan is for them to go on the 7/8/9/10B and the 897/898/899 routes.

The 10B is a busy route so why they want to put them on there is beyond me
