Wythenshawe will move them on then as i said the whole reason runcorn got them was because they got brand new ones which displaced them

Why would Wythenshawe take them back just to move them on again? If that were the case, they'd have gone to a new depot from Runcorn.

I'm pretty sure the actual, and perfectly logical if you actually think about it, reason they've returned to WY is for service which allows them to displace their older vehicles which are coming up to withdrawal age.

going on is there any other pulsars due to be displaced from any other depot

Not that I'm aware of (not that'd affect Bolton anyway). The displacement of Pulsars is generally going to be a pretty rare occurrence due their age; depots aren't going to want to give them away without adequate replacement!

What exactly is wrong with 2450?

If it was to be back in service, I'd be a happy bunny as I love that bus! It was always one of my favourites back in Blue Bus days.

am told no engine, tyers and roof issues but i not seen the damage or any photos myself however information does come from a driver (not on forum)


RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - Nicholas - 31/07/2012 20:18

Well at least the engine and tyres can be easily sorted - the roof sounds like the curse of East Lancs Coachbuilders striking again!

Thankyou.

Lovely ride on 2677 before, they are just lovely smooth buses in that batch

2566/67/68/69 are reported at St Helens getting repainted white as 2558/9 did. Do we know what is replacing these especially as the longer DAFs where at Manchester for the 10?
