I don't think it has the side one but it has a rear one I think, just blacked out

2211 doesn't meet this as the rear blind is completely covered over. The side blind is still there but the physical front blind would probably have to be checked for character heights so it won't be in service after tomorrow.

Was this the first batch of buses that Arriva bought new to the north west?

Arriva ordered the bodywork for the B6BLE Crusaders but MTL ordered the chassis, so these are the first buses ordered totally new by Arriva for the North West.

I thought the T---PNB darts were the first from Arriva North West? June 1999 if i remember correctly. Shortly after North Western but before they got MTL.

You're correct on both points. The T-PNBs were ordered by Arriva for the SMART routes

The X reg's were the first all Arriva order for the former MTL fleet.

Does anybody know what route 2211 is doing? As its got less than 12 hours remaining being a PSV and DDA compliant, I'd like to try and catch it.

Best bet is the 20. Although ive seen it on the 31 at times as well lately.
