They can do the seating and Wi-fi as much as like but they have done nothing for ride quality. The ride quality on 3033 is pretty awful, only better seating rather than urban 90s makes that one better than a dart.

Wonder if they'll be renumbered 8251 and 8252?
ArrivaNW's first B10BLE/Renown Trainer is -of course- 8250.

Just seen 3041 on a 44 with Southport Links branding so i gather this is another one done.

With credit to the Arriva Southport Facebook page 2629 is the latest arrival at Southport depot

RE: Arriva North West - Southport Depot
Should this be 2639 as reported in the Speke thread or is 2629 here too?

RE: Arriva North West - Southport Depot
Both 2629 and 2639 are now at Southport

Yes 2641 is due to move to Southport depot as is 2497 which I think is at Runcorn at the moment. DAFs 4171 and 4172 (as well as 4170, 4173 and 4175) are at Laird Street to replace the ex Blue Bus Tridents 4001/2 which have recently been withdrawn and sold to Wigan Coachways. I think the rest of the DLPs are for the Rail Replacement pool but I'm not 100% sure
