RE: Arriva North West - Green Lane Depot
Pleasing to see that the new double deckers have been confirmed as Euro V examples, given the disappointing quality of the Euro VI ones I've sampled in Manchester so far. Generally a ride quality no better than the Euro Vs (certainly not 'rattle free' as hinted in publicity) and a heating system that is nowhere near as effective as Arriva's new Euro V Enviro400s. To me, the Euro VI Enviro400s I've been on so far are a retrograde step if anything.

I think they've made the right choice with the routes as well, as the 12/13 and 15 are probably the worst two to use at peak times currently. It would be very useful if they start using them on the 26/27 routes on evenings with matches at Anfield. In the future, I hope the 14 and 18 are also upgraded to double deckers and then, finally, Green Lane depot will be approaching the capacity it requires.

3026 is now back in service here (on the 14 today), looking like it could do with a repaint.

Has 3025 arrived yet as it was still in service in St Helens last weekend (Sunday).

Thanks for confirming this mate. I hadn't seen it since last Sunday.

Ex-SH 2704 (X704 DBT) B10BLE/Renown seen heading towards Bootle this morning on route 68.
Still looks and sounds quite fit for a 14-year old bus (which is more than can be said for Pointer-bodied Darts of a similar age).
