Just asking if one of them is 4498/4499/4501/2/3/4/5 cause they appear to be off the road.
4499 is away for paint in Blackburn I think, 4503 has apparently returned repainted, not sure on the others I'll try and get an up to date list but I think a few are away, the original plan was to do 4 at a time.
Edit - 4501 4502 4504 also away for paint Currently

2645 now been withdrawn? Wonder why?

I believe its due to chassis condition
RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - bus401 - 23/12/2021 16:24
Does that mean that the cadets may last longer I wonder?

It depends on MOT date, looks and if needed.

I've been told ALL of the cadets and commanders are not to be used passed 24th January once all the streetlites and streetdecks have entered service over the water. No buses over 15 to be used. B7TLs for rails only. You know how things change but that's how it stands currently.
The reason for 2645s withdrawal is its not economical to repair given its an 07 plate and will be up for disposal next year anyway.

Is this due to apply to all depots or just Birkenhead? Thanks in advance
