RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - 313201 - 24/07/2021 18:02

Can I ask please, does anybody know if there is a diversion on the 437 route this evening.

Just thought I would ask as I saw a 437 going via the upton bypass with passengers on board at 18:45.

Diversion via Sainsbury roundabout and Upton bypass both directions until further notice. Due to road closure.

2576 is here on loan I believe was on the 433 earlier. Not aware of what it is tracking as probably a spare.

2501 is tracking here, could be a Transfer here from Winsford.

Not sure on 2501 but 2505 is here for service and 2493 apparently turned up.

there may be some hybrids off the road for the hybrid bus battery project. 30 of them are getting them replaced by the end of the year.

Fleet changes this week.

From Chester 2641/2645/6/7 transferring in. Cadets 2529, 2543 ,2545, 2553 withdrawn.
2599 withdrawn for scrap apparently needs new rear axle. 2530 withdrawn for scrap, engine problems.
4106/7 supposed to be moving to Winsford, 4414 and 4418 coming from Liverpool to replace them.

4109 4112 are going possibly Winsford but can't remember. Unsure about 2505/2493/2604.

Would be the first time for 2645/6/7 outside Arriva Cymru. Good to see Enviro400's making a return to the Wirral Division as well (barring loans of 45/46** from time to time).
