Im led to believe also that a streetlite had to be taken out of service last night to being bricked in the vicinity of St Catherines Hospital , does anybody have an idea what the vehicle number was ?
Yet another example of designers not having to travel on vehicles designed for the masses. Wrightbus also build the Borisbus which doubles as a mobile sauna in the summer months, I believe.
I am intrigued by the two-way radio equipment though. The St. Cath's area always was bandit territory when I worked over there. Clearly, it hasn't improved much.

It's been mentioned a few pages back that Birkenhead depot are fitting 2 way radios on a trial basis. Must have started already I didn't think it would be this soon!

4434 is in Laird Street
RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - N304CLV - 16/05/2016 07:41
Just seen 4434 now it's on 407
RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - Turbostar - 18/05/2016 07:13
It's been suggested by a source within the bus industry that Arriva will be withdrawing their services on route 2 (Liverpool - Chester) sometime in September? Also that the QBP arrangement with ticketing on the route with Stagecoach would end at that time also.
Does anyone know anything more about this?
RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - N304CLV - 18/05/2016 15:13
PVS seen in Laird Street earlier looked like they were taking Y36KNB for scrap.
RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot - Barney - 22/05/2016 19:43
I read in Arriva's Journey magazine that the two-way radio system is now operational in Laird Street and the plan is to extend this to other depots in due course. Has anyone experienced this in operation yet?
