In the end no way to turn so had to go wrong way down the fortunately pretty short one way bit . .
Those roadworks are pretty dire in at Neston Cross , due in no part to there being a set of four way temporary lights coupled to the normal lights at the bottom of Hinderton Road , changing merrily away whilst nobody can move in any direction until the temporary lights have changed .
Oh well somebody should have forseen the problems

Hybrid 4506 (MX13 AEG) was unusually operating the 410 services today.

I'm not surprised with at least three Pulsars away at Bootle.

3134 has returned to Birkenhead and was on the 414 today.
4203 was on the 407 this afternoon. 2906 was on the 410 - not sure on how usual this is, but I rarely see Pulsar 1s on there these days! Lastly, 2479 was parked in the depot at about 11:00, however it was on the 492/495 by 16:00-ish.

No sign of 4038 at the back of the depot anymore PVS methinks.

4533 (MX13ACV) was an unusual guest on the 414 today and performed reasonably well, apart from the rattling that has afflicted this batch of buses. One of the better hybrids I've sampled so far.
RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - L2SLT - 12/04/2014 17:08
I spotted a hybrid yesterday on King Street,2907 and 3123 on 413s this evening as well

Some changes on the 487 to Ness and Parkgate (please forgive me as I don't know what days) but buses were parking outside Neston Railway station for a total of 40 minutes due to road works. I will see if my source can get me a copy of the memo inside the depot.
Also, 4201 was parked at the front of the yard yesterday hinting a possible return to service.

Basically the 487s can't get beyond Neston Station due to The Cross being closed for resurfacing - should be finished tomorrow.
