Presumably if you had enough time to notice the service number/destination display, i would imagine you would have also noticed whether it had a large climate control system on the roof or not?

2249 was on the 36 in St Helens today. It was also in service in St Helens mid week last week so whatever time it spend at Birkenhead was minimal.

I seen two 12 plate pulsars today one on a 403 and another on a 495...

It probably explains why i seen quite a few 58/59 plate pulsars on the 410 today...

There was someone from arriva in Cook Street this afternoon doing a survey on the congestion that often occurs there due to the lack of space. I've noticed since Stagecoach changed the 19 service, these are often seen laying over there too.
