I have just been reading a bid Document from CW&C Council and Stagecoach for electric buses for the P&R (Not sure if it has been mentioned here before, I did search), makes for interesting reading, including how the routes are becoming through routes from July this year and that it would be Volvo 7900Es bought for 2017, which I think would be a first in the UK.

Document is at the bottom of this page:

Apparently the winners of the bid process for the funding is expected to be announced sometime this month.

I think Gold solos were replaced to 47034/35, I've see 37044/45 use route 5 before gold solos arrived.

There seems to be an issue at Chester depot with ticket machines not being able to print off
the my ticket day rover in the Merseyside area on the X8.Also some drivers seem unaware of the
my ticket,only last week a woman driver made a woman,child with a My ticket was told on boarding
that it was not allowed and charged an extra £1 :70 to Bromborough,i took her to task and she
refunded the fare. Not Good enough
