Ave updated the top post with all of the latest information known, including the start of the deliveries of E400s for Wales.
Also, Derby are now said to be getting 7 E400s so someone else must have one less on order, possibly one of the other Midlands depots.

All of the Enviro 400's for Rhyl are now believed to have been delivered so we should start seeing E400's for other depots being delivered very soon! Talking of deliveries, the first Streetlite has been spotted at Heysham on Friday, numbered 3651 which should make it one for Arriva Shires.

Just out of curiosity, with the Micro Hybrid Streetlites, will that then mean that there will be Rechargeable Sensors put into the Road for where it stops for example at Haymarket Bus Station and in Blyth on the 306, Similar to the examples used with Arriva The Shires and Essex.

Micro Hybrid means they use a flywheel in the drive system which recovers the energy that's usually wasted when braking. This energy is then used to run auxiliary systems such as interior lighting, therefore there's less fuel being used to run these systems and thus improving the fuel economy. The Micro Hybrid StreetLites also look just like any other StreetLite.

(29 Jun 2014, 8:53 pm)tyresmoke Presuming ADL are on track (I am guessing they are!) then we should be receiving 4 this week followed by 3 next week! Rhyl's launch is on Thursday followed by the buses entering service from Sunday. I'm lead to believe Bolton's launch event is this week too (Friday I believe).Might have a trip across , any idea if they will be stored at the depot or at Thorntons with the refurbished examples?

(29 Jun 2014, 9:09 pm)tyresmoke Not sure, I would assume Thorntons as I am not sure how much space Ashington has spare. I know Rhyl have been using a local coach company (Alpine) to store some of theirs.
Bolton are getting all existing Pulsars refurbished rather than new stock... They have been done in house at St Helens' refurbishment centre.
