RE: Stagecoach Chester & Wirral
It was only the last X8 of the day (Monday - Friday) that got allocated a 16 branded Enviro200 but sinse the retimings on Sunday, that wont happen anymore. I think there was an Enviro300 in for inspection so thats probably why 36804 was out. 21260 was noted on the X8 today as well.

21261 is a regular replacement when one of the 200's is off for service

Due to it being a spare bus now the Ellesmere Port 6 service has been withdrawn.

If there was to be a spare bus it would be a 62 plate Enviro200 as the Volvo is still used on the X2 but as 36071 has gone to Gillmoss, its a case of whatever 62 plate Enviro200 that was used on the X2 and 6 is now used on the Chester locals.

I saw Dart SF04VTC on route 1 to Liverpool at Little Sutton just after 5pm. Must be something going on with fleets problems?

Ye thats been at Rock Ferry for a while now. It was out in the 1 this morning as well. Chester lost the 6 so theres 1 bus down so 36071 departed. Also got 34600 coming back any time soon so theres another bus at Chester. There will be a lot more fleet movement this year due to upcoming changes in the summer/autumn, especially so at Rock Ferry, thats all im saying.

Saw a Volvo B10BLE on the 471/472 earlier this morning during rush hour, and it was absolutely packed. Later on at about 10am I saw an Enviro 400 on either the rail replacements or the 1/2. Anybody able to confirm this decker allocation? Seems strange to have a single decker on the 471/472 and a double decker knocking around elsewhere, especially if it was on the rails.

The Enviro was on the rails. 28548 was later on the 471/2 also following a decker failure
