Any passengers wanting to go cross-river are being advised to travel via Merseyrail who are apparently accepting all tickets for the time being.

All Arriva Crossrivers are running to Liverpool at this time.

It had been at Birkenhead for a few months for some engine work.

4200 noted to be at Bus & Coach Solutions in Burton Upon Trent, possible preservation as it was the first Eclipse Gemini new to Arriva London as VLW1?

It left Laird St yesterday, I heard it had been ear marked for preservation. They'll have a hell of a job though if so as it's been raided of parts.

4162 and 4203 have also gone for scrap this week. Not sure if anything else has.

2536 is down for withdrawal following engine failure.

Yep, as you probably know, the engine seizure happened on Egerton Grove, looks bad.
