Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
4002 was indeed still out yesterday as it spent its final day in service on 413 as I saw it in Moreton yesterday afternoon while I was on 106 from New Brighton

Birkenhead is being used to store the Withdrawn Bootle Darts so this will be joining its Sisters

RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
In relation to my previous post its 4001 that is with withdrawn. My apologies, I need to learn how to read a post before I publish it! Hammer

Two of the five Presidents are replacing 4001 and 4002, with the other three being rail buses (but they will be used on normal service) 4451 is still here and 2633 is at Southport. 2438 and 2441 are still with us, it's just a case of them being unfit for service, then they'll be withdrawn.

2463 is now here so Laird St have gained an extra six buses in a week.

4001 was on 464 on Friday and 2633 was on 410/1.What does unfit for service mean,MOT running out or developing faults etc.?

RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
I would probably say that it is when the vehicle has developed a fault which the upper management have deemed not worthy of spending the money on especially if they have a replacement already available . At the moment its a net gain which wont be for long .

It seems that the 464 is usually the route where the non hybrid double deckers go so watch that space for the replacement deckers.

I wonder if the 418/419 circuit will be full Pulsar based when these streetlites displace them on the 487
