Does anybody know what the last batch of double deckers delivered to St Helens depot were prior to these Enviro400s?

Thanks in advance!

RE: Arriva North West - St Helens Depot
F Reg olympians I believe were the last brand new deckers here.

I remember they arrived around March 1989, so about 3 months short of a 26 year gap in new deckers. Let's hope we dpn't have to wait this long for the next batch.
