As far as I'm aware they'll be staying

They're going to Wrexham when the hybrids arrive

What will Wrexham want Commanders for? Most of their routes need smaller buses except for the 1 which is getting new deckers and the 5 which is (allegedly) having some of the deckers that are currently on the 1

My thoughts exactly. I just can't see where three Commanders would fit in at Wrexham - especially when the 5 is upgraded to Sapphire

I would have thought that they'd be a short term filler to see off 2801-2803 until the new buses arrive for the 1 and then possibly move elsewhere.

If it's only for a few months then probably not worth it may as well just keep 2801-2803 for a couple more months, I think Chester would be a good place in Wales for the Commanders so that more B7RLEs can be sent off to the training fleet

I hope they keep the Cadets in Wrexham a little longer as I've not yet been on them lol

2599, 2601 and 2602 are down to go to Wrexham along with 2578 and 2579 from Speke. When the new Hybrids, Electric buses and Gas buses arrive a major vehicle cascade programme will see many suprising bus movements which involve most if not all depots.
