RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
Oh so thats why the 418/419 and 492/495 seem to always be run by buses that look like there on a shoestring budget. |

The Solos make sense though, these will probably be displaced from Wythenshawe. |

They're not for that service though are they, direct replacements for the MPDs on Heswall locals aren't they? |

I really hope the 6 new streetlites are for the 418/419 to accommodate it's 6 pvr. This service hasn't had investment in decent buses since the R-reg darts first ever came What's a streetlite? |

RE: Arriva North West - Birkenhead Depot
Im still not a supporter of the streetlite , it has that look of something that is cheap and nasty , but this looks the way of the future so will have to grin and bear it , me thinks. Six is a low figure , any idea on seating capacity of them . |
