There are four (I think) and they are supposed to be for schools only. They do, however, occasionally see use in service, mainly on the 49/A and the 43/6. There doesn't appear to be any rhyme or reason for this though - for example, there was an Olympian out on the 49 on Saturday, a day you'd have thought that there would be enough buses to cover the normal PVR.

i had 4104 on the 385 yesterday and the bus sounded more like a hair dryer, surely theres a problem with that bus?

RE: Arriva North West - Southport Depot
That sounded rough last time i seen it

The last one i went on a few weeks ago was 4100 which was very good and i realy enjoyed the ride!
