P&P cover buses are on top of the depot's normal requirement though, so with up to two being away at any one time for refurbishment, up to two extra buses are needed as cover. At the moment, Runcorn have 2419 and 7642 for this reason, while Speke have/had 3313 and 3332. As K853 says, once the Cadets are completed, these two will move elsewhere or leave the fleet altogether as is likely to be the case with 7642. Nothing will be required to replace this pair. Common sense would dictate 2419 joining its classmates at Birkenhead, but that's not always the case in the bus industry.
