RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
With Bootle receiving another 10 deckers from Speke, is it known where the displaced single deckers will go?

Chester I think, which single deckers are leaving?

This was the latest i heard but things keep changing:
The Enviro400 from speke to bootle.
09 Pulsars from bootle to southport.
10 plate Pulsars from southport to chester.
Sapphire Enviro400 from chester to rhyl.
Gemini 2 from rhyl to speke.

Wouldn't it be easier to just send the 09s to Chester?

The reason i got told is the 09 plate pulsars have lower mileage on them than the 10 plate pulsars at southport and with southports 10 plates having been refurbed inside it makes them ideal replacements for the sapphire Enviro400 at chester.
