No doubt all of them will not last until that age. In fact there will be quite a number of X platers with the cadets & some renowns. Once the Y plater renowns are gone there will be quite a gap in single deck buses that will need to be replaced. The gap being about 4 years. Time flies...I remember the X/ANC's being brand new, seeing 2208 on test in Huyton before it entered service, and being surprised to see 2219/21 on Bootle routes one night, had no idea they were due! https://www.flickr.com/photos/dmc1947/ |

It certainly does, I remember the X-ANC's new as well, used to get them on 53/55 when I lived in Bootle, can't say I ever liked them though. |

RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
May I take the opportunity of wishing an unmerry christmas for the driver ** of the 13:50 service 37 from St. Helens to Eccleston today (24 December). Arriving in town at about 13:50, instead of driving to the Bickerstaffe Street stop, he entered the bus station, presumably to discharge passengers, and then departed empty towards Eccleston (displaying 37 Dentons Green), leaving a queue of passengers waiting in a cold, damp Bickerstaffe Street. (It wasn't a cancellation, as the Cadet returned at just after 14:20, displaying 37 St. Helens. Thanks for nothing. (** - the driver, or some manager who authorised that action. ) |

RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot

No changes to times will be made, hope this helps. For Blog Posts Containing all the latest in the local Bus Scene The 2002 Bus Blog Subscribe to my Youtube Channel, Updated regularly!

The change to the 31 is that it will only serve Concourse Way in one direction only - no changes to times. |
