Nice, a bit of variety at winsford thank god! Decent quality buses presidents are, wonder how long they last before they're trashed by school kids & students???

Surely VLWs were more likely for Winsford, considering it was previously mentioned that 22 Presidents were destined for the North West? Most are now in service at Wythenshawe and Bolton, and to replace all the DLAs at Bolton, the full complement of remaining DLPs will be required. So, unless more are due on top of the original 22, it will probably be VLWs for Winsford.

How many VLW's are ear marked for transfer out of london.

So it could be possible for them to get VLW's then as arnt southport suppose to be getting VLW's too.


RE: Arriva North West - Winsford Depot - H101GEV - 31/12/2013 19:48

I believe 22 VLWs was the number mentioned in the previous post, giving a total of 44 cascades from London.

Well folks it appears we've ended up with another DLA, this time is 4074 (S244 JUA). I had it this morning on the 08:05 sandbach-northiwch, must say decent bus & fairly rapid too assuming its an ex wales one like 4078?

4074 was previously based at Skelmersdale, Southport and Bootle. One of the better DLAs in the North West undoubtedly.
