Ahhh I stand corrected! Can't keep up with all these fleet movements. Blame forum member M113 YKC (Michael) for giving me the wrong info

Has anyone observed 2583 here?
I know I definitely saw both 2583 and 2584 in L1BS today, but I'm less certain of what routes they were on - I *think* one was on the 79/C/D and the other was on the 76. However, given that 2583's most recently reported allocation was St Helens, it's not impossible it could have been on a 10A - so wanted to check before moving it!

Mini buses 7926 7927 on the Garston shuttle's today instead of the click buses
RE: Arriva North West - Speke Depot - buses7675 - 18/05/2019 00:30
I saw the Sprinters on Garston Shuttle today too.
7926 is BT66UAO
7927 is BF67WGX
Both are from Arriva Southern Counties, their 1003 & 1021 respectively and are standard bus conversion Merecedes Sprinter City 45s (similar to the ones at HTL) rather than with the EVM conversion on the Arriva Click ones.
I had a ride on the Click Sprinters on this the other week and it loaded well but the Click ones seat 13, while these standard Sprinters should seat 17 so maybe time to go for another ride.
It'll be vantastic....

Probably not (yet anyway) these two seem to just be to operate the Garston Shuttle and free up the Click Sprinters - possibly as one got smashed up a few weeks back they may be short.
