Spotted SK07CFU today in Chester with Aintree legals. Interesting purchase. Not entirely sure on its purpose (given the routes are only busy enough for an Enviro200 and the Rails have the deckers) but it's here.

There will be a Cheshire Show shuttle running this coming weekend (postponed from the usual date of mid-June.) I don't know who will be operating the shuttle but it's been Aintree Coachline for the past few years. This year will be slightly different with it being on a weekend, it'll mean a vehicle which is usually used on a school service could be used. Also apparently only those who pre-purchase tickets online will be allowed to board the bus, so they'll have more of an idea of how many people to expect than usual. I don't know if that means those who will be working at the show can't get there on the shuttle bus.

Helms have a 68 plate enviro 200 ev on the Chester rail link today. Looks smart, with tables near the rear of the bus too.

Apparently they have demonstrator LJ68 CYO on loan.
