Arriva Took 3 buses off Selwyns and two transferred to the Midlands used to see them near Donnington

They took 3/4 of Selywns cadets which became 2478-2480. 2478/2480 were transferred to Arriva Midlands and upseated. The remaining cadet was a 51reg bus which operated out of Manchester, not Runcorn.

Had a ride on 4114 on the 81A tonight which has been fitted with Wi-Fi, although you'd only know once on board. There is one sticker next to the staircase but none outside. I assume the full batch has been/is being fitted. High time the Gemini 2s were done!
RE: Arriva North West - Speke Depot - MPTE1955 - 14/03/2015 21:30
No the whole batch hasn't, just one or two, think 4108 might have had and you would think I would know getting the 81 to work every morning but I just don't take that much notice as to what I'm riding at 7 in the morning. However, it would help to have who more notices to say Wi-fi was fitted as can't see that many people realising.

4108/09/10/11/12/13/14 and possibly 15 are ALL fitted with Free WiFi!
Just to clear up. The 500 WILL be route branded but will not be receiving Sapphire or Max. WiFi will also be fitted to the two welsh Commanders dedicated to the route.

4127 is on the 82 this afternoon.
RE: Arriva North West - Speke Depot - childwallblues - 26/03/2015 06:47
4207 was on the 79D yesterday.
RE: Arriva North West - Speke Depot - childwallblues - 04/04/2015 17:33
Enviro 4564 out on the 79 this morning.

2601 (CX06BKF) is now repainted, route branded for the 500 and fitted with free Wi-Fi. The other branded bus is presumably 2602. A permanent return to the Airport express for these two Commanders after a few years away.

I can't say I think much of the branding or application of the WiFi sticker towards the rear on this. Definitely preferred the previous incarnation of airport branding!
