Why did the driver crash it?
Was he taken ill?

RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
Was doing a little dive on Twitter recently and I believe I saw a post that said Luton finally received their new batch of Evoras, any idea on when Bootle will receive the old batch from Luton?

8 new 25 plate Evoras are due for Bootle. There's about 2 or 3 have arrived.

RE: Arriva North West - Bootle Depot
Is there a projected date for when the Evoras will enter service?

Driving past the depot yesterday I seen what looked to be a Metro branded Evora. Is this one of the new 25 plates or a transfer from Luton?

I was surprised to locate and ride an E400MMC (4744) on route 63 yesterday. I thought this was all single deck.

An incidental point of ignorance is that, while I knew about the 17 reg E400MMCs, I don't know when the 16 reg's came to Merseyside. I reckon they may have come from Leicester and replaced the oldest Enviro400s.

I reckon more likely a new one. The ones from Luton might not need repainting.
