RE: Ex Arriva NW Palatine II's
I had a ride on 3330 while Winsford had it. Absolutely terrible it was, with no working heaters upstairs and gaps between the opening windows letting the winter air in. A rough rider as well, so that was one of the worst R-WVRs for me. Fond memories of 3309 and 3315 while they were at Bootle though, with 3334 my personal favourite of the Speke ones.

Generally speaking though, the R-WVRs were a nasty old batch of buses and to me the DLAs, even allowing for their shortcomings, were a huge improvement. The age difference between the two types seemed a lot more than just a year!
