Ive seen quite a few complaints on the Stagecoach twitter page about the 41 being packed. Obviously money was invested in the Enviro200s nearly 2 years ago so they are not going to invest in deckers for that route so maybe this is Rock Ferrys answer. I wonder if the large buses have been working the busier duties.

Is anything planned for X8 only I was talking to a Stagecoach driver last week and he mentioned that on some journeys the timings do need looking at especially on journeys towards Chester I think he mentioned.

As for loading on the service I used 17:20 X8 last Friday I think it was and while it wasn't full and standing we did leave Cheshire Oaks with a healthy load

In peak hours they're usually crowded between Birkenhead and woodchurch ( healthy loads between new ferry and Birkenhead), and crowded between Birkenhead and new ferry, near enough empty by mill park.

Rockferry are not taking over the X8 and that comes from a reliable source from Gilmoss, Given the fact the service runs from Chester to Liverpool, starts and finishes in Chester moving the service to Rockferry would incur high amounts of dead mileage this is eliminated by Chester running the X8, the only changes that are being made are additional stops at shore lane which is the last possible stop for paying customers to board before the Rockferry bypass and the amendment of times
