I think we have a couple of 07s in Bangor if Winsford are due for some.

I can take note that 2520 is now here and is on the 7A, I been over to Rhyl and depot today but never saw it in there or anywhere, as far I was aware it was on this morning in Rhyl on the 36s before it came off.

Yup


Think reason liverpool are having the 14 plate pulsars back is with them being euro whatever it is that meets regs now.

Also some standard non sapphire spec Enviro400s should do well here, the regular seating means you can cram a few more on when it's busy.

No CAZ rules are in place in Merseyside at the present time I think it’s possible it may be to replace a few vehicles that are over 15 years old

All I know is what I'm aware of is that Bangor depot Pulsar 2s will be going over to Merseyside with the 11 brand new MCV Evoras to come in place for them coming next month or this December and other 4 Pulsar 2s in Bangor are to stay. As I said we still got a couple of 07s going around Bangor at the moment but I know Chester has got the 2 remaining 07s 2644/61. Plus Rhyl with those that are 15/16 to 18 years.

Yep the Evoras and the Hydrogen Enviros should free up the last Commanders and 2 Centros in Merseyside

[Was hoping that Chester would get some of those Pulsars from Bangor but I guess not now [/i]
