4428 appears to be the first of the next batch from Liverpool to enter service. Seen earlier on the 47 with the front display stuck on reversing.

Question, 1008 is used as a staff bus and has not tracked since June does this mean it's still fitted with the ticket machine, if so seems a waste of equipment

Former Arriva North-West 4419 (CX58 GBV) is now in service with Arriva Midlands at Thurmaston - it has been renumbered 4435 and was viewed on Saturday (23rd December) on route 48.

4427 (MX09 LXJ) is also now in service - ironically, in light of the previous comments about 4428, when viewed on Saturday morning (again on route 48) 4427's destination display was ... stuck on 'reversing'!

Does anyone know what happened to 2528 optare solo not ran since November. 

Mayfield

It's dumped at the bottom of the yard near the wash, blocked in by 2-3 large liquid containers so I doubt if this will see service again, also there parked next to it is 4761.
8019 is also at Thurmaston

Anyone know what's happened to 3150 not used since September

Shows as November on Bustimes https://bustimes.org/vehicles/amid-3150

I see that now I've clicked on history but a quick glance on bus times fleet says September, strange but still 2 months since being used.

4422 and 4423 have now gone to Liverpool.

NW 4420 and 4430 have transferred down in exchange, though 4430 broke down before it reached the M6.

Bet the Liverpudlians are have a right laugh sorting out which S**** to send south.

We can't complain. We did the same to Kent a few years ago. 4207 broke down before it reached the A14.
