I presumed they are the ex 25 plate ones from AD at Falkirk?

I have been told that there's only about 20 remaining at ADL Falkirk so there must be at least 30 somewhere much nearer to Merseyside. They will be the ones that carried '25' plates (and were allocated 75 plates too....).

If I am to believe Bustimes (yes, I know) 82402 has been out of service for a week, 82410 seems to have failed in service again yesterday (out of action for 3 days earlier this week), and 82419 failed to complete its first day in service.

I've been monitoring the similar Go North West 26 reg batch of 33 vehicles at Bolton, and they seem to be unacceptably unreliable. 3 of them have been out of service for a combined 28 days as of this morning.

Perhaps the new Gen 2 has issues that need ironing out.
