Arriva North West - Bootle Depot

RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
Further chaos on the 345 today... The morning journey from Skelmersdale to Liverpool, oddly 4427, started about 35 minutes late. On the motorway, we passed 3016 on the hard shoulder - bonnet up with a fitter inspecting the engine and his van was parked in-front of it. Presumably, that had been the original allocation but hadn't made it to Skelmersdale. Later in the day, this board was being operated by 3022; 4427 was heading out of service on Queens Drive towards Old Swan in the afternoon. The original allocation for the evening 345 from Liverpool to Skelmersdale was 2234 but, apparently, that'd been exchanged/failed on the journey before and 3122 was its replacement.

Also, 2265 was on the 52s, 2266 was on the 53A this evening and 2519 was oddly on the 58.
