It's probubally the only bus available at short notice Smithy29919 may be able to confirm this but you have to work with what you can get sometimes when not much available

Not really as they could of waited a few weeks then sent the 2 Gemini 2s from Bootle, or send 2 of the DLP's there before going to their depot

Depends how quick smithy29919 needed buses

I think if Bangor would have spared deckers they would have done to Rhyl and also with colleges starting then they need there deckers

The northwest don't like lending buses to Wales (unless there sheds). With refurb programs like this replacement buses are found from own area depots

As for singe decker on a double decker route there's been a pulsar or sometimes two on the 11 service for the past 8 months!!!

Was just thinking that Mr Smith! Everyday nearly (well most) when I'm on 10/10A there be at least one Max Pulsar even the other day Chester Depot had a Solo (675) and a dart (2208) on the 10/10A

2437 has been a good shed in Bangor can I add Big Grin its a shed but it has been rather a decent bus

Not all are sheds, that's not fair of me to say, however the northwest are renowned for not wanting to lend buses to Wales, mainly as they know the distance involved and the possibility of them having to pick up the bus in an emergency.
