I'm no lover of Marshall Darts, but having been on a few of the Southport ones recently, there still ok, they do the job & having been refurbished look ok for their age. I know there is talk of them being withdrawn by the end of the year, but you can't blame Arriva for continuing to use them I suppose.
The talk of replacing them with slightly newer Darts as a stop gap seems an odd choice though.

DAF/ALX400 4094 has suffered a catastrophic engine failure and will be scrapped. Such a shame...
RE: Arriva North West - Southport Depot - skemnational - 30/08/2013 21:10

RE: Arriva North West - Southport Depot - wirralbus - 30/08/2013 22:08
Another DAF/Alx400 probably.

Awwh! My heart bleeds!
It's a pity a few more don't have failed engines (seeing as most of them are knackered anyway).
I for one won't miss 'em!

The thing is at the moment Arriva are just sending knackered engined double deck london vehicles up north , investment in new double deckers is only for specific requirements .

Boarded a 375 today from Skem to Ormskirk there was a guy from TfGM noting everyone's tickets, thought it strange as he was outside their area

2727 on the 47/48's today while a few of the 47/48 branded pulsars were out on the 43/46 and 49's
