As much as I know my way around Widnes I don't know areas/road names etc.
The marginal costs of whether to use a mid-life decker or minibus are minimal. I don't live in that area but I have no doubt that the X5 will be a success. For the first few weeks of operation the X2 also carried fresh air but, based on the repeated capital investment, that has become a big earner for Stagecoach.
I am well aware this will probably carry fresh air for a week or two. I was merely saying that I had seen the X5. I was surprised to find the decker on there and just thought it was overkill for a first day.

11107 is SK68 LVZ
Also does anyone know what the PVR for the X5 is please?
Thanks
I've noticed neither 900 RWX nor SJ57 AAK are found by a search on the DVLA site. Has 53297 been re-registered to something else?

I'll check when I finish work tonight but I'm sure it is still 900RWX
11101 and 11108 are on the 10A today whilst 11103 was on the 20 and 11109 on the 14.
Has the 07 reg gemini been used lately ?

Unless there has been good local publicity, many potential passengers will be clueless as to the route / destination details, etc. And many people seeing a coach will possibly not appreciate that it is a "service bus" rather than some tour / excursion / long distance express service.
