That may be because Cadets were available at the time. If I remember correctly, they replaced ALX200s - pretty-much perfectly-sized replacements, in my opinion. It's not always possible to uniform a depot's fleet.

Yes the Cadets were to replace the aging ALX200 Darts and also Wythenshawe Depot need simiilar sized vehicles to operate 247 Altrincham-Eccles route as for some reason Pulsars aren't supposedly allowed on there (although I've seen one once on there) think its something to do with part of the route round Sinderland although I'm not to sure.

Interesting to note is that the ALX200 Darts were originally bought as replacements for Wright Axcess Ultralows on 19/A/B/C group of routes as back in the day there were various differences in the full Circular 19 routes especially round the Hale/Hale Barnes area

Do you think more cadets will come to Wythenshawe to be painted to replace the Trafford Centre branded ALX200's

2742 has a None standard front display and doesn't fill the front of the bus presume it came out of one of the R Plate Alexanders?

2252 definitely needs a repaint soon scruffiest arriva bus i've seen for some time i thought it was a former arriva bus at first glance.

Bring Back Arriva Skelmersdale
