currently sat in Wrexham and burnt out before being investigated by VOSA!

It doesn’t look too bad really, but I doubt they will bother repairing it as I am sure there will be another MPD lying around spare somewhere!

You never know after Bootle repaired marshall 7674 after a similar incident and that was brought back into service about 2 weeks ago.

Saw 2793 broke down in Wrexham earlier, just 5 mins away from Bus Station, parked up with bonnet up, it was the 13:15 journey of the X94.

nice to see it out on that I think the MPD's are sometimes abit too small for the 26/27 route

Wrexham could really do with a couple of vehicles around the B36F size for some of the routes, or increase frequency for some of the routes.

If anything I think Cadets or Winsford's Centro's would be good for this depot, B38-B40F Seating

I don't know why they don't send 4401 here as spare for the Sapphire and possibly the X94, I'm sure they can find a route it can be used on when not required. It would be better than it carrying fresh air from Bootle to Aigburth which it currently does and 2799 could be then become spare for the X94 instead of using that heap 824 all the time.
