Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
Plaxton Pointer 2 X235 ANC (2235) was unusually on the 345 this morning! I barely see this bus on ex-Skelmersdale services. It was dreadful on my journey from Skelmersdale, via the M58, anyway... Idle vibrations were unbearable and the clanging and rattling on-board was horrific!

Think it had a new back end and yes they should have painted the whole bus, however this bus has been back out and like that for a good few months now.
Yes, it did have a new back-end fitted a few months ago. It would have made sense to have repainted the whole bus, however the paint-shop were very busy at the time with accident-damaged buses and with Southport's "P&P" treatment - not that I'm implying that the bus would have been repainted if the work-load within the paint-shop was lower...
