Did 7002 go in for bodywork in late-November? noticed it came back on Christmas Eve. Unless it was temporarily stored

4110 has been on the 12/13 and 15 today

I'm assuming 2581 is currently not in use, hasn't been out since late November.

Speaking of 4110, I wonder if it will start seeing general passenger service? That is if Arriva doesn't store and SORN the majority of the fleet if we enter another lockdown, as it seems to be much more serious this time.

EDIT: Turns out Arriva are still operating normal timetables minus the change in government regulations.

2581 is indeed out of traffic at the moment. 4110 will be allocated to regular services if it's needed

Noticed whilst cycling yesterday that something appeared to be hanging off the bottom of 4664, hope it's not something too serious!

Something at Bootle depot is using 1037's machine.

Noticed just earlier it was reportedly on the 9, but started tracking from Linacre Lane and headed for Magdalene Square in Netherton.

Edit to avoid multiple posts: 4666 now has a green rim on the rear right wheel (can't have came from 4590?) and 4831 was tracking as 1035 on the 18 until the driver on the bus during a changeover on Muirhead Avenue managed to get it tracking again, except 1035 managed to end up on the early morning 6 service at lunchtime!

Apparently 7936 has been withdrawn to be sent back to Alexander Dennis, is the E200EV project over or will Green Lane get another loaned bus?
