Townlynx
00C31053 Volvo B10BLE / Wright Renown has been re-registered to Y224BAW but is not yet in service.
DE04XEZ Mercedes Vario has left the fleet.
It is understood that a number of vehicles are up for sale including the other Vario and the Dart.
It appears that Townlynx have lost the '14' Denbigh to Mold route to GHA and they have registered a new 'T1' service from Greenfield via Holywell to Chester (Foregate Street) which looks like it will put them in competition with Arriva.

T1 Chester to Greenfield via Holywell, sounds very intersting.
Just seen in the Flintshire Leader that a new service 8 between Mold and Sealand Manor will commence on the 7th November, replacing the 6. Wonder who will operate the new service?

I understand that it will be GHA - I believe they won the tendering process.
I also understand that the Pantymwyn to Mold service will be operated by Townlynx - needing only one vehicle.
Yes, probably GHA, what I do not understand is why no Saturday service. Yes the 6 requires a PVR of 2 for Monday to Friday Schooldays, 1 on School Holidays and 1 for Saturday.
Any info on the timetable for the new 8 service? It started today but I can't find any info on the web!
Also worth noting that Traveline still does not acknowledge the existance of D Jones' 13B.
I cannot find any info either on the new 8 :/
