Arriva North West - Bootle Depot

RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
Bootle's Pulsars in big demand this afternoon for the Crabbies Grand National shuttle service at Aintree.
I presume the city-centre bound routes will have a full allocation of deckers (including some on-loan ones from Speke).

Huge convoy of Pulsars seen heading in the direction of the racecourse included;
2918 (CX58 EXK), 2925 (CX58 FZG), 2929 (CX58 FZL) along with Pulsar2 variants 2944 (MX09 LYF) and 3017 (MX59 FFV).
All with "AINTREE RACES-A1" on their LED displays, although 2929 said "HOME OF THE GRAND NATIONAL" (or something similar).

It would be nice if Bootle could keep Speke's deckers (they'll probably go back Monday), as their routes definitely seem to be attracting more passengers lately.
