So will a DLA be kept as a spare, or will they use a spare Commander??? or is it to be a 23 seat PDL?

That livery looks awful,still with the cross river logo


RE: Arriva Buses Wales - Wrexham Depot - CX54 DKD - 27/01/2013 18:44

I thought the livery for the 1 was a silver base, no? With regards the crossriver logo, considering the livery is clearly incomplete, I'm sure it's something they plan to remove, even at Blackburn! If not for the 1 though, I wonder what the adapted livery is about....

In reply to LJ51, 2513 will be the spare bus for the 1 upon its return from Aber (if it hasn't already returned that is).


RE: Arriva Buses Wales - Wrexham Depot - Raawwwrrr! - 27/01/2013 18:47

Oh look! They've removed all the seats to create aditional standing space! Laugh

I too thought the livery was silver Confused


RE: Arriva Buses Wales - Wrexham Depot - V671 DVU - 27/01/2013 18:50

The livery was silver as I've saw a picture of the silver livery and it was very nice indeed...looks like they've changed their mind very last minute to this lot less pleasing effort...

The plan for a 'Platinum' brand has been shelved in favour of a 'Sapphire' alternative.

2513 is back at Wrexham and was working the 1 on Thursday. A very impressive bus, it has to be said.

Interesting story behind that change of name I believe...! I just assumed they'd still be keeping the silver colouring though, thanks for that confirmation 507009.


RE: Arriva Buses Wales - Wrexham Depot - N301 CKB - 29/01/2013 22:30

The Enviro in the picture link looks like to be 4403.
