Anything due to go to any of the Welsh depots?

Most if not all of the next batch of Pulsars to be released are heading for St Helens apparently

I got told Runcorn were due 9 Pulsars - unsure if they will be from Green Lane.

Its since been said that plans have changed so its possible Runcorn will get some Commanders or nothing at all

I did hear something about some Commanders going to Wythenshawe so they could be from there - unless that's changed of course

I was encouraged by the news above that Green Lane is gaining higher numbered Volvo B5LHs than Speke. I plan to ride one on route 14 in May, hopefully before any BYDs enter service.

Green Lane is retaining 4800-7 along with 4830-9 and 4841-7. 4850 is due here as well

I have no idea why the 4800-4850 batch wasn't allocated in order but they're an increase in capacity on the 14 and 18 so I guess that's all that matters

Fair enough that the batch is split this way, but thank you for preparing me. As I am mainly riding Stagecoach buses in May, it is handy that these B5LHs are working route 14, so that I can use my Stagecoach Dayrider Plus on it!
