RE: Ex Arriva NW Palatine II's
Regarding N276CKB is still alive a well and indeed it is still in service with Buckley Bells as I've just seen it heading past my house in Chadderton, Oldham, I think it must be one of the most reliable vehicles they've ever had, its still in Arriva livery btw

3316/8/20/3/5/8 don't even exist. 3324 is at Bolton.

RE: Ex Arriva NW Palatine II's
If 3335 is still at speke, it's parts are being used on 3313 and 3332, Its as good as scrap!

Not too sure why Speke havent took the LED's out and put them in 3313, Probs as thats not far from going soon too ut means that 3313, 2476 and 2477 are the only buses at Speke with manual roller blinds now

I thought 3321 was still at Bolton giving them 5 of the batch of which 3317/24 are in the new livery.

As far as I know mate, 3332 and 3335 were originally transferred to Speke a few months ago as emergency cover, mainly for the 699. I think its 3313 that later joined them.
Not definite about that though, just something in the back of my mind ringing some bells!

EDIT: The last time I was there, it was 3315 and 3317 in Liverline mate, but that was back in April!

I'm pretty sure that I posted on the old forum about my sighting of one of the "LEDd" Palatine 2s being in the outside yard of the ex-Liverline facility. This was a while back though!
