RE: Arriva North West - Green Lane Depot
I managed to sample all of the seven Enviro400s that entered traffic today. Overall I was extremely impressed with all of them - with 4650 and 4651 being two that stood out for me. At the start of the day loadings were generally quite light - but these soon picked up very well as the day went on and clearly showed why the 15 (and 12/13) need a full double deck allocation

I think that the "Double Vision" adverts are really good marketing - it's excellent to see Arriva continuing to promote their investments as with the "Posh and Double Decks" adverts. I heard a lot of positive comments about the new buses over the course of the day - one in particular was a passenger asking the driver if the bus had free WiFi prior to boarding - this certainly seemed to be a deciding factor in his decision to travel on the 15 instead of the other services that operate between Huyton and Liverpool City Centre!
