Arriva North West - Runcorn Depot
RE: Arriva North West - Runcorn Depot
On Facebook group seems like Runcorn are gaining 3047 to 3061 and 3077/8 from Green Lane.

Could be part of a bigger fleet movement as Southport and St. Helens are swapping Pulsars over this coming week too.

I'll start a new thread "Possible Jan/Feb Fleet Movement" for details to be added by anyone.

Should be for pool, the amount of Pulsar's runcorn are getting must mean that 2537/8/40 are now for the pool fleet, unless they are for service

If they have gone to Bootle it will be for Service, simply no space to store Buses there

They are parked up with NFS notices in the window at present, so clearly at the moment there is no rush to use them.

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 think all Runcorn Cadet's are now just Reserve or Spares buses? for the Depot, due to the Pulsar's

2539/46/47/49 stored here for pool. All pool vehicles are stored serviceable, dont be surprised if they end up in service at any depot.

Assuming it as withdrawn, will 4104 be going for scrap?

What a waste to have 4104 withdrawn after being VOR for a couple of years at Winsford, got repainted, now Withdrawn, Arriva have just wasted their money on repainting 4104 just to go on the scrapyard roads & not return to service
