it was on them 1 day last week as well, shame it still failed to run on time
On the back of a recovery vehicle just now heading, presumably towards helms' depot was one of the b6 volvos which seems to have suffered a engine fire as the rear is fire damaged. I couldnt get a ID for it but it has been parked up at the backford dip scrap yard since saturday.
Does anyone know if the ex-Dublin B7TL has entered service and if so what registration it has? Thanks.

I was told about this by a work mate who said it was a couple of miles from Whitchurch sometime at the end of last week.

Not yet starting into service and no registration plate yet, just finished repaint new Helms Livery and parked at Yard.
864 currently being recovered from Neston by a big red tow truck.
This is currently in backford dip scrap yard.
Helms are using a 09 plate Solo on the Chester rail link today.

It carries route branding on the rear for Flintshire Linxx to Pantymwyn
It has been bought from Townlynx for use by Helms. Dublin B7 is in service and is now registered X211HBT. The b6 was 247
I saw the Arrow Northern Counties today, Iy was behind my 2, It wen through the tunnel with another Helms Decker, looked like an ALX400...Could be different though
