If that's the case on this QBP (it's not on the others) then Merseytravel need to remove the claims of low emissions engines from their advertising. I'd find it strange if there was no emissions standards on this QBP though. As an aside, and in response to an earlier post, at what I assume is Euro III, the vehicles brought in by first wouldn't comply with the normal QBP emissions standards. ![]() |

So do the Pulsars on behalf of Arriva which I had assumed would remain allocated into the QBP until the Hybrids arrived. Not a case of 'not clicking' at all, the Hybrids aren't here yet. It's more First who are going to be at liberty of breaching any emissions standards in the immediate term anyway. ![]() |

The Pulsar's will be on the 2 (401) anyway, and so will the 14 new ones coming, the 471 - 472 will be DLA's, Enviro's and Gemini's as usual. Take a walk on the wild side of life, life!

The QBP standard is Euro-3. The poster is correct in that any bus may run on a QBP route, at least for now. The Wirral services have not been signed officially and hence will not from the outset contain any criteria which operators are obliged to adhere to. For example First could turn out their Olympians if they wanted to. However when they *are* signed up and in place it is a different story entirely. |

Is it definitely Euro 3 and not 4 as I'm pretty sure that our Euro 3 Cadets don't comply with the 10/A QBP - it's only our Euro 4 Pulsars which do. ![]() |

CX54 - I thought it was Euro4 as well looks like Wirral is different to everywhere else unless there giving them 2/3 months so until after the olympics to sort things out |
