RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot
currently all arriva bolton services are suspended but i bet that will change in the next hour or so, normally they make change so the 575 and 715 miss st davids cresent and the 575 and 537 turn around on blackburn road so i expect the same to happen again

Trainers move round all the time between depots. Runcorn has a training vehicle but no instructors so when required an instructor from Winsford comes. Only trainers which have sort of stayed put are 8201 and 8202 at Speke

At least we know that the Birkenhead routes are getting Volvo B5LHs before Bolton route 10. Which are the Wrexham Sapphire routes?

The route 1 (Wrexham - Chester) will be branded as 'Sapphire' and nine of Birkenhead's Enviro400s should be going there.

3101(i) | 3305 | 3616 | 4012 | 4159 | 4100 | 4102 | 4118 | 4127 | 4475
313044 | 313064 | 313220 | 314206 | 314210 | 315809 | 315839 | 315857 | 507001 | 507002 | 507006 | 507008 | 507009 | 508114 | 508138 | 508208

Thank you for this info. I plan a tour of Wrexham and Holywell later in the year and can ride this route again then. I reckon on doing Bolton route 10 on the August Bank Holiday with other Sunday operations and Metrolink extensions. I rode a Commander on route 10 last Jubilee Monday.
