Aye its a HUGE rarity that you'll ever get 3615 working to chester, the dlas do it just not 3615. Also has anyone seen 8223 lately, thought it'd would've been out on driver training duties or if nothing else just a run out to keep it in good nick?
Pity its a trainer these days as from what i've seen it looks fairly rateable & sounds decent too.

8223 was parked at Arriva Runcorn Test Centre a few days last week so I presume on training up there
RE: Arriva North West - Winsford Depot - 33109 - 09/12/2013 16:35
Ahhhhhhh right that'll explain its absence then, at least its seeing some regular use anyway. Anyone know when 8223 last saw passenger use before it was converted to a training vehicle???

It's not a huge rarity at all, The working is down as "Decker" so it's up to anything!

Yh true its just that 3615 rarely ever works to chester dunno why but just seems to be the way things are. Anyone know why the centros haven't been given the interior refresh yet like the cadets/darts have had?
It'd certainly present a better image to passengers as their deffo looking rather tired internally now.
RE: Arriva North West - Winsford Depot - R311 WVR - 10/12/2013 17:49
I think it's due to the fact that they did the refurb in 2009, Only 2 and a Half years after the centro's were new, Therefore, not really needing one! 2502 was on a decker duty of the 37 today.

No Andy. Just no.
The B10B did not retire aged 11
RE: Arriva North West - Winsford Depot - Olympian - 11/12/2013 16:36
think the money ran out before they got to the Centros and in fact only 4 of the cadets had the seats replaced, they are all looking a bit rough inside now.
The 2 newer Cadets from Runcorn were given an interior refresh whilst at Runcorn so it cant be an age thing.
