Will the fleet move off to their new depots the night of the changeover or will they be parked up somewhere? As the St Helens fleet were parked up in Haydock.

That isn't known, well where the fleet will go that is, but I fully expect the evening/night of Saturday 24/10 to see all the Arriva fleet move out and the METRO fleet move in, just like what happened at St Helens
Had my last ride on the Cross River B5LHs earlier on, feels kind of end of an era, be strange when they're gone tomorrow along with all the other Arriva stuff.

Also what a day to pick to change over with storms coming in later & tomorrow.
Any ideas where buses are being taken to after service tonight?

I believe land next to Bidston tip, on Wallasey Bridge Road......so not far from Laird Street.
