A friend of mine who lives in Saltley was stopped drivibg on the way to Broughton shops and fined £1000!

There was checks on the Arriva Midlands, Oswestry depot 2/2A Oswestry to Wrexham, cross border services last lockdown on the Welsh sections and I understand checks have been made over the last week, particularly Chirk having just crossed from Shropshire.

Interesting bringing the Arriva brand back to the Ellesmere port area.

Lucky that the 3B is being withdrawn so they could. Do you know why Stagecoach are withdrawing the 5?

Had a ride on 2647 on the 5's earlier, gotta admit, feels rather more excitable imo

I am not sure if this is true, but i see Mercedes Sprinter 1029 at Chester on the Quack77 fleet list, with it being Anchillary, can i get reminded if this is true or not.
