Not too sure mate my guess is there long term lease as the older darts that Ace own themselves are red but all the enviros are left in dealer white.
My mate who drives for Ace has got 728 on the 5 in maghull this morning then hes taking it on the kirkby circulars its 728s last day today if anyone wants that last photo it and 714 are leaving Ace tomorrow.
One of the new Enviro 200s arrived yesterday it is registered MX62GYC no fleet number yet will be getting prepared for service so wont be on the road for a few days yet. Just been told that the other new Enviro will arrive sometime next week.
ACE are using closed bus stops on the 197 across the Church Street Sandy Lane section of the route. (Arriva are diverting via St James Road.)
Just looking through Stafford bus sales site and they two ex Ace MPD's and a Falcon for sale.
They did have the former ACE K-Reg Dennis Dominator at Stafford though I don't know if this has been sold or gone for scrap? Quite a good bus tbh
The other new Enviro 200 has now arrived at Ace it is registered MX62GNJ and has fleet number 763 while MX62GYC is 762.
Only one journey ran on the 211 speke circular this morning then the service was withdrawn for the rest of the day due to the dangerous icy condition of the roads.
I see Ace now run a 500 of an evening.
Does anyone know why it runs the same timings as the Merseytravel service, operated by Stagecoach. (confirmed on the new timetable)
Cheers!
