With First having more depots on the line of the route it would always make more sense to give them a bigger proportion of the service , Arriva always seemed to have buses giving up at the wrong end of the network for them . |

It looks to me as if the daytime 72/472 Pensby Rd corridor daytime service is reducing from 6 buses to 3 per hour. That's turning the clock back to pre-dereg Crosville days. This makes sense for Arriva and First, but lousy for the passengers. |

But when this service 472 was introduced it was not so much a complimentary service to the 72 as much as two buses following each other minutes apart chasing the very same customer , so wasnt really 6 buses, but 3 buses with one chasing the other to arrowe park gates then it was a free for all from there . |

2455 on 409? I think it is, as I saw it going out on a bus exchange before. A Cadet has just passed me with 409 on the dest, going to Laird St. Take a walk on the wild side of life, life!

Do the DLA's and VLW's comply with the QBP? |

RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
Well if the VLW don't comply how do the ones first are getting comply as there also Volvo B7TL Wright Gemini's |

Because the First ones are newer so I assume to a later Euro standard. Oh Superman where are you now, when everything's gone wrong somehow, the men of steel, the men of power, are losing control by the hour.

I've been told by managment (the boss of LS), there is no 'standard', anybus can go on QPB. Liverpool got a grant for their new buses. Take a walk on the wild side of life, life!
