DAF Ikarus 2564 was never put in for its MOT so therefore its been Withdrawn from Service

The following Fleet Changes are due to happen over the Weekend
2 Presidents to Birkenhead, 1 to Winsford and 1 to Speke, i assume the Winsford and Speke examples will just be loans

VOLVO B10BLE Wright Renown 2710 is due to move over to St Helens Depot

Dennis Dart SLF Plaxton Pointer 2 2217 and DAF Ikarus 2565 will be Withdrawn

The 3 Presidents staying at Bolton are going to be 4183, 4184 and 4185.

Are these three any of the ZF gearbox versions? I never managed to get them however I did hear one setting off from Bolton which sounded very unusual

Which one's for Birkenhead?

According to http://platewave.com/LJ51ORA the registration LJ51 ORA is not currently used (available). Does tis mean 4178 has been scrapped, unless it has been converted to open top and given a northern Irish style registration (e.g. "DAF 4178").

I have 4178 as LF02ORA?

Just a quick side note, Today is 10 Days since the sale of Blue Bus to Arriva, lot has changed over the years and a hell of a lot of Service cuts as well.

You mean 10 years as opposed to 10 days!
