Same location. The main depot and service lanes are to the front of the site with the paint/repair shop and engine workshop toward the rear.

2209 also running 89s this afternoon.

Severe bunching? Certainly not 'severe' from what I saw and besides which, current delays are due to roadworks down route, aren't they?

RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
Of the three sets of 352s and 395s i saw There was two buses on the 352 at Orrell Post Heading Wigan bound including 7650 and a Interurban Pulsar2
Two Heading Sh Bound at Same Time a Old and New Livery one Both with different displays one had via Orrell on the displays the other just St Helens.
two 395s i saw coming out of Skem fully loaded all up each others arses one was a Pulsar1 with a Damaged Emergency exit door looked like someone had been kicking it in from the exterior and the other was a 297* pulsar. i saw nothing between Skem and Orrell Post other than the two 395s heading Wigan bound and that was including the Southports on the 375/385 i also note that Holmeswood loadings on the 3a are really improving over similar Upholland-Skelm sections where they compete with Arriva services
