The streetlites are weird, being non standard whether they could be swapped with pulsars from other depots, then again LS had a couple of non standard Ikarus Citibuses mostly allocated to the 488 for years.

Why did Arriva get Streetlites for the 487 instead of Pulsars given they are non standard in this area?

If Birkenhead want rid of the Streetlites could they be swapped with Pulsars from outside of the North West & Wales.

The Streetlites are very much non-standard and, from all accounts, aren't the most popular buses in any fleet. It does seem odd that these Streetlites and the five MMCs at Bootle were bought at all.

The Question is, Who would want to swap Pulsars for Streetlites, I cant see anyone wanting to make that trade.

Pulsar product ion had ceased when the streetlites were new is one reason.
