Arriva North West 3078/MX61AWJ
Depot: Green Lane
VDL SB200CS/Wright Pulsar
Route 898 Page Moss Terminus - Kirkby Industrial Estate
Towards the end of 2022 the NWVRT held their Nocturnal Running Day and i decided to take a slightly alternative route to get there, this gave me the opportunity to record one of Green Lane depots VDL SB200/Wright Pulsar 2s on one of the numerous Merseytravel tenders that Arriva had gained. This is 3078/MX61AWJ which is the last of the first batch of euro 5 engined examples that came to Merseyside, most of which have departed elsewhere. It's recorded working its way along the East Lancs Road and around Kirkby Industrial Estate on the 898 route.
