RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
The reason for drivers keeping the cadet out is like you say CX54,drivets prefer cadets cause there easier to manouvre round crank and rainford than pulsars are and a lot of the drivers dont like the solos or solo sr due to the body design faults. |

Cadets seemed to get around today, there seemed to be a couple of the 34 and 2491 on the 620 too. This meaning 2269 and 7650 (replaced by 2416) on the 37/8 and 2712 on the 329. |

RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
2324 is out on 33s today BBB. It seems that the X reg Cadets are being operated exactly as the 54 plate batch regardless of late duties too. Escaping again on to the 356 late board this evening should be 2421 - St Helens obviously have more faith in their reliability than other depots have done!
