RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
The four Enviro400s that weren't on the 52/52A this afternoon were 4621, 4623, 4626 and 4636. However, one of those that were on the route proceeded to fail just after lunchtime (it wasn't 4621) and was replaced with, wait for it, a Pulsar.

The use of the spares appears to be poor. 4416 was at least on the 53 this afternoon but they couldn't even manage a full allocation of deckers on the 56 where a Dart was in use today. It appears the spares are going out on the 60 and 61, where more than enough deckers are already allocated. Using the leftover Enviro400s on the 53 and 55 would actually be of a lot more benefit.
