ADVERTISE ADVERTISE ADVERTISE is what it needs. I've seen posters on the new Gold buses, but big posters at Sir Thomas St, Chester Bus Stn, Birkenhead Bus Stn, Ellesmere Port Bus Stn and any other principle stops would also help a great deal.

I personally cannot wait to get the bus back home from work again- I hate driving home when I'm knackered. I just hope that there is at least a twinkle of hope of commercial viability

Some a bit more innovative than a bus every 90 minutes might be better if it generates passengers , what would you do if you missed a bus by minutes get a taxi , this service to be truly worthwhile needs to be every 60 minutes , but would then need one more bus at least.

Every 30 minutes would be recommended in my opinion. If its raining, who wants to be waiting for 60 or even 90 minutes for a bus. Me I' say forget it and get a taxi.

Not 100% sure but they are parked up as though they will be in service today (Thursday).

May be worth noting since transfer to Gillmoss 18152 has gained LED destination equipment. As already mentioned it has returned to birkenhead.

I am no longer active on this forum.
