2144 is one of the former Park & Ride examples so has 38 seats - not a massive difference with the Pulsars.

Thanks for the clarification. Yes that will be a bit of a capacity boost over the 58 plate Solo's.

Rode on 2904 today. Been a while since I’ve come across a Pulsar (or any Arriva bus for that matter) complete with the old livery AND seat design. I would have thought this would be one of the first to be refurbished.

Someone on bustimes.org has transferred 2628 over to Arriva Wales, as bustimes can’t be trusted, can someone confirm whether 2628 has moved to Arriva Wales

2596 spotted coming into St Helens Bus Station to finish of a 10 duty that it hasn’t tracked on.

Also, what is the PVR for the 10.

Thanks.

Looks like there may be some interesting workings in the evenings now from Jackson Street dependent on vehicle availability as due to recent problems near the Bus Station apparently all late duties from Jackson Street now start at the Depot rather than Bus Station.

Is 2615 still in service?
