The real praise will come if there is continued investment into the depots, not just this flurry at the start of the operations. For this we will have to wait and see before huge amounts of praise are given out. (Before anyone says anything, I do not doubt that Stagecoach will keep investing).
Stagecoach in Chester probably needs to move out of the tightly congested Liverpool Road garage to grow there operation , I dont think there is an immediate need though , just something that if it comes up will improve both the staff and customers perception of Stagecoach.
Remeber folks! for all we know a 'GTL job' could be seen here yet again, bye bye useful services, Hello money makers!

Ahhh so its not just me who remembers that shambles.It did provide some lovely views along the A41 including Cammell Laird, Rock Ferry garage and the Rock Retail park. Can't see why they stopped it...
On another note, does anybody know if R877 ERE is in use with stagecoach? I saw it parked at the back of the depot by the wash on Saturday but not heard anything else about it.

R877 ERE is supposed to be numbered 28984 with Stagecoach.
Does anybody know how many Tridents Chester are getting for Open top tours, and will it be done in house by stagecoach?
From photos on Flickr, looks like the conversion is taking place in house at Lillyhall.
