RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
Perfectly usual, Paladins are allocated to the 89 daily. TT is referring to the new Solos :-) ![[Image: 1chYP.jpg]](http://i.imgur.com/1chYP.jpg)

2274 broke down again this evening, noted waiting for a tow truck near the Hospital just after 6:30pm. Would not surprise if this along with 2273 are withdrawn once the Solo's enter service. Thanks!

In contrast 2101 seems to be quiet a good Dart...2133 seems to be a very good example for an S reg too...On a different topic, not that I expect it to be scrapped, but 2494 has dodgy suspension and it sounded like the body was scraping on the wheels the other day!

RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
With regards those two sth77, I suppose it'll depend on whether they go by quality or just outright withdrawal by age. With regards 2494, the suspension has been poor for an extended period. I was surprised (well, not hugely but anyway) when it wasn't sorted during its lengthy spell off for engine problems. I suppose it wasn't considered cost effective enough to repair.
