I'm afraid it will just be a quick repaint and back to Chester, I think it only got in yesterday morning and they've made short work of the body prep!

Oh ok, maybe Chester will fix it (if they haven't already)

Today six or seven brand new P&R Enviro 300 at Chester Depot. Ready for enter service on Monday, should be expecting more to come before on Monday.

Steven Knight Media reports that 21248 has transferred to Stagecoach East Midlands' Grimsby depot with further B7RLEs expected to follow

Are all the ex P & R buses at Chester the ones being transferred to Grimsby?

Indeed it got reported on Stagecoach Enthusiast facebook page as well I believe, from what I gather the post was put up by one of Chester Depot drivers he also stated the P&R spare in standard livery will live on the X2 when not on P&R

This morning I went down to depot to see brand new P&R enviro mmc coming out of the depot ready enter into service. Last Enviro mmc 26062 Stagecoach livery reg no is SN16OPU. Only four left Park and Ride and 21262 stagecoach livery Wright Eclipse still at Chester depot at the moment.

Are Stagecoach generally okay with people taking pictures outside (or inside) the depot? I'm going to Chester and I'd like to take some pictures of buses by the depot, but I don't want to seem as if I'm trying to cause trouble.
