RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
I do think it will be more SRs of the current size as opposed to anything smaller. Yes, the SRs are proving to verge upon being too small (especially at peaks) but for the local routes they're used on, the capacity of the Paladins was unnecessary. Seeing how poorly the 58 Solos cope, I would hope management wouldn't touch anything of that size with a bargepole!

An interim sized vehicle, such as a Versa or Streetlite, would have been the better choice giving the company a smaller vehicle which is reasonably light on fuel whilst giving passengers the required capacity.
