Pretty certain this is 4630 (SN15 LMV).

Bit shocking for a brand new bus!

St Helens based 4612 also has the same problem, Not good for a Bus that only entered Service a few months ago

Sounds like it could be a generic problem once the panel has been opened , it then doesnt seem to want to fit back in probably with the enviro's .

Ex welsh commanders are replacing darts, so with 2513 now being here there should be a withdrawn dart.

I've been told all of Bootle's X-reg Darts will be gone by September, replaced by SB200/Commanders from Speke depot.

Apart from the obvious styling differences, these Commanders are similar to Pulsars, except that they use the 5.9 litre Cummins engine rather than the 6.7 litre.

How many Commanders are going to Bootle? Is it just the Welsh ones going or are some of Spekes native 06 reg examples going too? Thanks.

I would imagine 12 commanders to replace 13 darts,(including 2234 which is rumoured to be elsewhere)I think all of Welsh ones will certainly come so that is 10 plus maybe a few of the 06 ones perhaps.

2504-2513 are to transfer to Bootle and I've also heard 2556/7 are also due to come to replace darts but im not sure how likely that is to happen.
