It is due to be sold, hasn't been yet. The potential buyer would be Avon however they refused to purchase it. It is still on the market though. 124 was withdrawn about a month ago.

Another service gained, this one being the Bishops High-Great Sutton 208 service acquired off Stagecoach. Due to start in September.

The final Volvo B6BLE/Wright Crusader remaining in the fleet L2 SLT (862) has now been withdrawn.
2 new 65-plate Alexander Dennis Enviro 200s are due shortly, one arriving in September and the other in December. I'm led to believe these will wear a new and updated version of the 'Inter-the-City' design livery for the Rail Link.
The Saturday service 272 is to be withdrawn after operation on the 29th September 2015.
The morning journey of the 28 (Ince at 0727 to Chester at 0800) will be operated by Helms and the afternoon journey will be operated by Arrowebrook Coaches.
