Presume there going via Part of DB1 route through the back of Handbridge?
There's been a lot of missed services on the Penycae's today. According to the Arriva Wales facebook page it's because of a "mechanical issue" A bit of a poor show not having a spare vehicle.
It was only one Service that was dropped because i have been photographing vehicles on the 3/4 today...not really a poor show we are short on vehicles and simply can not help a break down.

Anyway as for the Enviro 200s confirmed Delivery date is 26th of June, Rhyls batch will also come near to that time Smile
Try telling that to someone stuck in Ponciau for an hour because their bus doesn't show up. How a huge firm like Arriva can leave a depot 'short on buses' is beyond me.

Don't forget on daily plans at every depot they have buses VOR the night before that need fixing plus MOT prep plus general breakdowns in day and the run out of vehicles for all services so occasionally there may be no spare buses so service may be lost...they can't just Magic a bus up to cover if none spare and other garages in the area have none spare etc it's all down to cost/Money
