Night buses in Reading are busy mainly because of the amount of uni students but also the late night trains to London (and London has a very busy nightlife). Warrington doesn't have even half as many uni students. And doesn't have all night trains to somewhere with a bustling nightlife.
It could work and I wish them the best of luck but I think this won't last longer than the new year. Not without funding.

Night buses for airport passengers is also starting to creep up. If can remember Warrington use to have a coach service 24h to liverpool/manchester airport.

A revised Connect 17 livery is shown on here, looking closer to the new Warrington's Own Buses branding:
