Interesting fact about the '07 Pulsars, they all seem to use the 5.9 litre engine (as found in the Dart), rather than the bigger 6.7 litre of all other Pulsars.
Easy way to ID a 5.9 litre Pulsar, they all have exposed exhausts, rather than hidden ones...

Are they covering for a shortage of Buses or is there another reason behind this?

2407 was scrapped over a year ago with fire damage alongside 2410

RE: Arriva North West - Green Lane Depot
2404 was the one that had an oil leak and it caught fire in Old Swan wasnt it? 2407 and 2412 were the other ones that burnt. Was there any more or just them 3? 2407 was being stored in St Helens shortly after its fire. They were designed wrong, same with the Scanias and, also, the MANs that Stagecoach currently have.
