Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
Bootle will be receiving the new standard Wayfarer ETMs for their fleet in July of this year. A few Bootle-based drivers have been to Speke recently to be shown how to use them and they're now showing other drivers in Bootle how they work before they're fitted to the whole fleet.

Also, the 68 will be transferring to Green Lane soon as a result of the ex-Liverline facility's closure once the lease for it expires later on in the year. I'm unsure on what'll be sent there for the service, however I suspect that the remaining T-PNB Plaxton Pointer 2s and X-OBN ALX200s will be candidates, along with Bootle's two oldest buses - Plaxton Pointer R604 MHN (2104) and Plaxton Pointer 2 R569 ABA (7569). The 62/62A/62B MIGHT follow suit - or it might even become jointly-operated, with Bootle operating the Crosby journeys and Green Lane operating the Bootle journeys - if space conditions are still an issue inside the main depot after the 68 has transferred.
