RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
I'm pretty certain I saw ex-Runcorn Pulsar 2951 on the 487 in Neston an hour ago. |

RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
Out of interest considering one of Bolton's Hybrid's was involved in a nasty accident yesterday morning, couldn't one of Birkenhead's be sent on loan to Bolton while the Bolton example is away at Wrights for repair so that it doesn't leave Bolton Depot short of vehicles |

I don't really see why Birkenhead would want to loan Bolton one of their brand new buses, this would leave themselves short as well. I would imagine that Bolton will just have to make do with whatever is available to cover for their damaged bus. |

Slightly mis-timed shot of 2951 in Thornton Hough this morning on the 487 http://www.flickr.com/photos/dmc1947/855...otostream/ 2675 on the previous working to 2951 http://www.flickr.com/photos/dmc1947/855...otostream/ 2953 seen again on the 487 http://www.flickr.com/photos/dmc1947/855...otostream/ The other working was 2952 (didn't get a shot though). And one of the Hybrids passed me whilst in Thornton Hough (appeared from the opposite direction to where I was looking so no chance of a shot), think it was 4505 and fully branded up, am guessing driver traing.

Found a shot on Flickr of 2949 on a 432 http://www.flickr.com/photos/93490889@N07/8543444066/ Do we know if these ex Runcorn ones are loans or permanent transfers yet as they were said to be going to Wythenshawe??

RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
They will be just short-term loans until a sufficient number of hybrids enter service. After this, they will take up residence at Wythenshawe.
