Regarding new orders, personally I doubt any Pulsars are on the way, but you never know. Enviro200s size wise are ideal replacements but I don't think they'll be able to cope with Liverpools roads and the demanding life they'd live at one of the busiest depots in the North West. Furthermore Arriva tend to buy them with the 4 cylinder engine as demonstrated in the Southport examples, which as shown by Runcorns Cadets, are not up to the job when it comes to hard demanding lives.
