It'll be nice to see a bit more variety in the Green Lane fleet for the foreseeable future until the Myllenniums and Renowns are replaced in around a year's time

I would agree with that view. Although a standardised fleet may make it easier to operate, it can be a bit tedious for the enthusiast. Also, the loss of the new(ish) Pulsars to other areas needs to be seen in the bigger picture. I have just looked at an Arriva NW fleet list and apparently 3107-3135 Pulsars were never intended for Merseyside and were diverted from TGM in 2012. No doubt that annoyed the expectant recipients at the time.
