RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
Do not forget that the 492 and 495 services seem to be the depots test route . Anything that Arriva Birkenhead has at its disposal seems to find its way on to those routes this includes Hybrids and Solos , which are considerably different in size. |

2505 was here for an MOT, but due to a bus shortage it found itself on the road. The reason it was on the 492 is due to the fact it can be taken off easily. Daniel Christopher. |

Commander 2505 only worked from Laird St for around 4-5 hours then made its way back to Speke. |

Indeed, it was apparently there for MOT but was chucked out in service for a short time due to a shortage of vehicles. |

RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
It does make you wonder what would happen if Laird Street did not have all these other Arriva buses coming to it for MOT , the place sounds like it has constant vehicle shortages. The adage is don't give other depots vehicles if you can't keep your own fleet constant . |

RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
The things is if they are short of vehicles why did they let St Helens have 4200. |
