I must say that, likewise with 2910, it was in a pretty-much tidy condition and it was quite a smooth runner, free of any mad rattles. Overall, I'm impressed with both former Wrexham Pulsars at the moment, although disappointed that those which went to Birkenhead were treated to cosmetic maintenance and Bootle's weren't... I've found that some of Bootle's older Pulsars and Pulsar 2s have really deteriorated in quality recently - 2916 (dreadful differential sounds and noises from underneath)

2911 (CX58 EXB) still has a yellow-red 'w' sticker at the top of its windscreen (Wrexham?)
2916 (CX58 EXH) is definitely the loudest of Bootle's Pulsars, and 2922 (CX58 FZC) has developed bad hyper-revving problems recently.

By the way, I remember (about two months' ago) you posted something about the disappearance of 2926 (CX58 FZH) from the fleet, and I STILL haven't seen this bus on the road!
DVLA say its still taxed, anyone know where it might be??
