When the deckers from the green bus fund arrive in theory this will see off some Volvo ALX400's from Speke

Completely agree with this. If the move was only temporary then I don't see why they would have moved over to Birkenhead four months before the track renewal project is due to commence - or why they would have been branded like the rest of the hybrid fleet
