Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
I'm quite surprised that these new Enviro400MMC deckers have entered traffic so soon, as I thought drivers would have needed Type Training on them. I say this because they seem to have Stop-Start Technology on them- 4697 (YX17 NFM) certainly has SST as it stalls at traffic lights.

The only criticism I have of them is that the top deck view is obstructed by a huge CCTV monitor, so the original Enviro400 design is better in this respect.

Makes me wonder what'll happen now to 2708 (X708 DBT) B10BLE/Renown, talking of which, it seems grossly inefficient compared to these new E400MMCs, having a kerbweight of 10480kg for just 44 seats!
The new MMCs have 77 E-Leather seats and are very light at just 10645kg.
Impressive!
