RE: Arriva Buses Wales - Wrexham Depot
You've got to laugh at the Councillors comments.. "should reduce the service to 1 an hour", Jesus, there'd be a standing load before it gets out of Penycae! And my local councillor saying "there's always been a problem with the 4 & 5 in Ponciau" Yeah the 4 & 5 don't go through bloody Ponciau!

Its one of the worst wrote articles i have ever seen, i am sure if they have approached Arriva for comment as they stated they did then they will be told straight, i personally would as its put a lot of false information in there and no doubt passengers will now read that and Arriva and the Drivers will get it in the neck.

One of the Enviro 400 Citys is now vinyled up spotted it in Wrexham Bus Station earlier although instead of the "get there in style from Arriva" it states "Arriva Connecting Wrexham" wonder how well taken that will given the latest uproar over Local Service's.

I'm not sure that plagiarising an old GHA strapline is the best way forward, you'd think they could come up with something a little more original

The E400MMCs at Bootle have an 'Arriva connecting Merseyside' strapline on the offside only, so that concept seems to be the 'new' thing. It of course used to be 'serving'. Can easily see why that was discontinued.

Surely the word 'connecting' relates to the fact there is wi-fi available onboard to connect passengers to the internet, rather than the places served.

Not in this sentance, they are saying that Arriva are connecting you to places in Merseyside
