Seems they're just sending up the Pulsar's early so Merseyside can get their Streetlite's earlier.
Not ideal for Stockton mind who are getting a downgrade from it all, especially considering how elderly the fleet is there already. Debate on whether a 5 year old Pulsar is better than a Streetlite mind.
Originally it was mentioned that the 09 Plate Pulsar's were meant to be moving from Redcar instead but seems plans have changed.

Don't think anything else is planned to leave Liverpool until their Evora's turn up now though - they're due some aswell. I could be wrong there though as plans seem to change quite a bit but that's what has been said quite recently.
