Suspect a Pulsar will take its place looks like a pretty nasty one.

There's a video on the Liverpool Echo website, I don't think we'll be seeing 2808 again as the whole bus was ablaze.....

The fire brigade had left by the time I turned up (as I was in the area for unrelated matters), RNW turned up around 2pm and loaded the bus onto a low loader before leaving just after 3:20 PM.

2808 is now at St Helens. Strange as no bodyshop but plenty of storage space

Is it actually moquette or eLeather, which is the Arriva Merseyside standard seat covering?
