I assumed that they were being delivered on low-loaders as the distance between Falkirk and Liverpool is over 230 miles. Also, does anyone know have far these BYD's are expected to travel on a single charge and how long it takes to recharge a totally flat BYD battery?

They have enough charge for 18 hours of use. Recharge is 4/5 hours
7000 and 7004 were used for driver familiarisation today

7001 was at the launch today whilst 7000 was out on driver familiarisation again
Quite a few interesting allocations today. At least one Pulsar each on the 10B, 12/13 and 15 with an Enviro400 and Gemini 3 on the 26/27 circulars

Will there be an increase in frequency on the 26/7 when these BYD's hit the road? The BYD's only seat 38 and it will be interesting to see how they cope at peak times and when there's a match on. Once upon a time these routes had a 3-minute frequency AND benefited from supplementary football specials.
