[Archive] Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot

[R879 HRF]

RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
4000 nearly made it into service onto the 423 last night, however started overheating and leaking coolant all over the road by the time it got from the depot to seacombe ferry. As a result the bus it was supposed to take off (4514) had to stay on.

I believe the reasoning for 4000 being taken out was that hybrids still arnt allowed on the night services (despite there being a few on recently) and i do believe that particular running board (the 7.30pm ish off seacombe) runs straight onto N450s.
