Probably too soon for it to be that but would make sense for Arriva to run the ex-Maytree journeys.

RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot
according to an arriva bolton driver 2 mini hybrids are due, i can only assume these are the hybrids for the 512/513, IF this is correct this will mean arrivas will have a 7 day service from bolton to bury (adding with the 510 sunday daytime service) if i hear anything else i will post

I've heard the 512/513 are back at First which requires 4 Hybrids. The 544 and 559 also used Hybrids I think so could be for them.
