Think this is what will be the missing 4494 which was at Birkenhead yesterday (as 4493), as 4492/3 seem to be correctly numbered now.

I'd agree with that, the lack of Cross River branding on the seating suggests this is an example for Bolton.

Good call....the pic of the two 4502's shows AFF without seat branding (the correct 4502 and the last Bolton one) and AFJ has seat branding (which should be 4503, the first Birkenhead one)

RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - T42 PVM - 05/03/2013 09:42
last i heard only 8 hybirds are here with the other 3 due by the end of the week, 7621 is to be withdrawn from service when they come
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - M60lad - 06/03/2013 07:40
Think I must have seen most of the Hybrids yesterday evening between 17:20 and 17:35 as firstly I spotted about 4 within a couple of minutes of each other Brookhouse bound on Cromwell Road, then I spotted another 2 on Blackfriars Road heading to Brookhouse and another one heading towards Shudehill on Deansgate, traffic problems caused by additional traffic heading to Man Utd match last night were causing delays to services with bunching like I've already said
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - T42 PVM - 06/03/2013 10:21
last 3 hybrids due today
this is just depot talk but i will post as i think theres a good chance of it happening, whats been said is arriva bolton are on about withdrawing a mon-fri morning trip and afternoon trip on the 715 to fit in with a school run so the depot PVR can drop by 1 this will make a DAF decker on the 715 daily (if it happens!)
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - M60lad - 07/03/2013 07:21
Sounds like going back to Bluebus days then with 715 as when Bluebus operated the route one 715 in the afternoon used to operate as a another service from Bolton-Wigan, it used to do the 715 route from Wigan-Wingates before missing out Westhoughton and continuing along Manchester Road then back on route at Chew Moor Lane/St Johns Road until Ladybridge where it used to call in to Dean School and then come out and continue along 715 route too Bolton.
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - WWH44L - 09/03/2013 12:33
Hybrid 4496 on the 534 today, oh dear.........
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - r411 xfl - 09/03/2013 17:11
3 hybrids on 715 today
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - jonathon890 - 09/03/2013 17:59
4501 was also on the 534s. Route 10 only needs 6 buses on Saturdays.
RE: Arriva North West - Bolton Depot - Metroline1511 - 10/03/2013 00:03
I shall be disappointed when 7621 is wihdrawn. I hope it replaces a Pointer elsewhere.
I am encouraged that the B5LHs are now in service on route 10. Do they operate daily ie on Sundays and Bank Holidays too?
